Pediatric Hip Stabilizer
Manufacturer: RCAI

The Unilateral Hip Stabilizer has an adjustable belt back panel to accommodate a wider range of sizes. It is factory preset at 15º of hip abduction with adjustable flexion, extension motion control settings. The HS is used to provide abduction and rotation control for hip dislocation, replacement, revisions and fractures.





Pediatric Hip Abducton Splint
Manufacturer: Orthomerica

This lightweight pediatric orthosis offers the advantage of hip abduction adjustments. Sturdy polypropylene frame set in 90° degree hip flexion - abduction easily adjustable 40° degree through 180° degrees. Appropriate for infants from 3 months to 18 months. More total contact than Pavlik harness. Easy application, removal facilitates diaper changes. Closed-cell foam does not retain moisture.

Pediatrics Adjustable Hip Abduction Splint
Camp 129
This orthosis is designed to maintain abduction for treatment of hip dysplasia and dislocation in infants. Adjustable abduction bar maintains precise degree of abduction and accommodates growth. Lightweight with foam-padded edges for comfort. Sanitary and moisture-proof. Hook and pile closure on cuffs facilitates application and removal. May be fitted over or under diaper.


Pediatrics FAST-WRAP® Pavlik Harness
Camp 115
This orthosis utilizes the principle of flexion with free abduction to achieve reduction of hip dysplasia and dislocation in infants. Eliminates the need for hip casting and allows necessary joint movements. It is an ideal alternative to hip casting, thereby eliminating skin problems associated with casting. FAST-WRAP design features hook and pile closures for easy application, size adjustment, and removal. Quick-release buckle provides secure, safe closure. It may be fitted over or under the diaper.

    Sitting, Walking And Standing Hip Orthosis

    What makes SWASH unique to other hip orthoses is that it offers controlled variable abduction. It is engineered with a complex series of angles to maintain good hip alignment as the uprights follow the pathways of motion of the femurs.






    While standing or walking,SWASH provides just enough abduction to prevent scissoring and medial femoral rotation. As the hips are flexed to assume the sitting position, it automatically further abducts the hips to create a tripod base for enhanced sitting stability and more upright posture. The most visible benefits of them SWASH is readily apparent by improvements in sitting and standing posture and stability, and for the ambulatory user, improvement in gait. However, perhaps the most important benefit the SWASH offers is guidance for hip alignment.







    Increased Levels of Function

    SWASH

    • is a hip stabilization and sitting orthosis
    • can offer significant benefits for both non-ambulatory and ambulatory children
    • can work for neuromuscular disorders other than just CP
    • can work for children with severe involvement as well as mild
    • can work on infants and older kids
    • does not interfere with kids ability t
    • play
    • does not interfere with most walkers, wheelchairs, or even standing frames





    Two styles of orthoses to meet different patient needs:


    Original

    • Plastic pelvic section extends from L 2/L3 to the coccyx, providing maximum torso support for candidates with flaccidity or very limited trunk control
    • Single strap fixed front closure to secure torso support
    • Increased posterior and side support
    • "Childproof" thigh cuff closure
    • Proven results in several different independent studies
    • Available with 115° or 123° uprights



    Low Profile

    • Anatomically shaped metal pelvic section rests over the pelvis and is secured in position by attaching to a small plastic reinforced abdominal pad
    • Double strap front closure allows symmetrical application
    • 8 mm diameter uprights in all sizes
    • Extra strong for extra high tone
    • Interchangeable thigh cuff sizes
    • Overlap design thigh cuff closure for easy application and removal
    • Contoured posterior joints reduce interference with posterior walkers and other standing/walking/sitting aids
    • Available with 115° or 123° uprights



    Less abduction in sitting115°
    Reduced abduction better accommodates wheelchairs with narrow seat structures and is better tolerated by children with tight adductor muscles.

    More abduction in sitting123°
    Increased abduction offers maximum opportunity for muscle lengthening in the sitting position, and is also recommended when there is need to influence the trunk toward more spinal extension.
