## Indications for use
This product will be used by the patient to assist in navigating a specific set of stairs. This is a self-contained product that is mounted to the tread of a staircase. This design offers easy installation. The typical user is someone who has limited function of their knees, hips or ankles and/or has trouble bending these joints. Other users include rehabilitated stroke victims, those inflicted with MS, arthritis, heart disease, and those who cannot handle the exertion of walking up and down stairs. The unit may be recommended by doctors or physical therapists for those who are recuperating, but a large number of users acquire a stairway elevator just because it eases the burden of climbing stairs, improving their quality of life. For those who are wheelchair bound, it requires that they be able to transfer and is usually an option only if the physical limitations of the residence prohibits a vertical elevator.
