The benefits of having grab bars installed, particularly in the bathroom following a total hip or total or replacement are obvious and are usually appreciated primarily in the short term following surgery. What many do not always realize is that although they can now attain a much higher to a level of activity and freedom of pain, there is some dimishment in the proprioceptive abilities of that joint (ability to sense its position in space). I believe that for this reason-greater activity and reduced proprioception -that grab bars can provide an important additional degree of safety in the shower for the long term.
