2-Point Gait Crutches Walking Pattern Demonstration Nursing Skill NCLEX

Hey everyone, it's Sarah with registered nurse RN.com,

and today we're going to demonstrate how to do the 2 point gait using crutches.

So the 2 point, we're going to have 2 points

on the ground at a time whether it's a crutch or a foot.

So what does it look like? Well, this is where the patient

will move the crutch on the injured side,

so we're going to say it's the right side, so they move

the right crutch and they move the left foot together.

Then they will move the left crutch on that non injured side

and the right foot together, so you have two points.
