Crutch pad

A crutch pad is a formed piece of non-slip material, such as rubber, glycerin gel, or sheepskin, designed to be attached to a crutch to provide firm and comfortable support during use. It is typically used on axillary or elbow crutches to improve user comfort and prevent skin irritation or pressure points.

This category includes replacement or additional padding intended for reuse, as crutches are often initially supplied with necessary padding. These devices are regulated as reusable medical devices and are subject to general safety and performance requirements applicable to such accessories, without implying any specific regulatory class.
