護理師協助病人進行行動復健。下列哪種輔助器具能提供最穩定的步態？
A nurse is assisting a client with mobility. Which assistive device ensures the most stable gait during rehabilitation?
- AQuad cane四腳拐杖
- BSingle-point cane單點拐杖
- CWalker✓ 正解助行器
- DCrutches拐杖
— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
助行器（Walker）提供四個接觸點，支撐面最大，因此在所有輔助器具中提供最強的平衡感與穩定性，特別適合術後或虛弱病人。單點拐杖與四腳拐杖（Quad cane）雖能協助減重，但接觸面積遠小於助行器；拐杖（Crutches）則需較佳的上肢肌力與平衡力。
A walker provides four points of contact and the largest base of support, offering the strongest balance and stability among assistive devices; it is particularly suitable for postoperative or debilitated clients. Although single-point canes and quad canes assist with weight-bearing, their contact area is far smaller than that of a walker. Crutches require greater upper-extremity strength and balance.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國物理治療師（PT）高度參與輔助具評估；台灣則常由醫師指示，護理師需確認病人正確使用。
