ABSTRACT:
A device for supporting an unstable ambulatory patient while walking. The device is similar to a customary walker except that the user is additionally supported by a harness attaching the user to the walker by a readily releasable latch or snap device, and the legs of the walker are springable to provide both for a broader base of the walker to inhibit tipping and to reduce the jolt to the patient should the patient fall. The walker is designed for independent use by the patient.
