Today you notice that the patient you have been treating since his knee surgery is developing a limp, which you attribute to his recent transition from partial to full weight-bearing. To slow down his walking gait and provide some unweighting of the healing knee joint, you decide to provide this patient with a cane. Which of the following steps should you take to fit him for a cane and instruct him in using it when ambulating? Select only the steps that are appropriate. Place your selections in the order in which you would perform them. Some of the steps listed may not be used. A. With the patient standing, measure the distance between the floor and the crease of the patient's wrist. B. Instruct the patient to hold the cane on the uninjured side and use a three-point gait to advance the cane 4 to 6 inches ahead of the uninjured foot while simultaneously bearing weight on the injured limb and cane. C. Adjust the cane length by measuring the distance between the floor and the crease of the patient's elbow on the uninjured side of the body. D. Ask the patient to remove his shoes and stand with his feet close together and knees flexed to approximately 20°. E. Inspect the cane ferrule/tip, shaft, and handle to make sure they are clean, functioning, and neither worn out nor defective. F. Instruct the patient to hold the cane on the injured side and use a three-point gait to advance the cane 4 to 6 inches ahead of the injured foot while simultaneously bearing weight on the uninjured limb and cane. G. Ask the patient to wear low shoes similar to the ones he will be wearing when walking and to stand straight with his feet close together. H.
