Studies have documented the effectiveness of external hip protectors in preventing hip fractures. Posey Hipsters feature impact-absorbing pads over the critical hip fracture area to minimize potential damage that can occur from a fall. The brief is made from comfortable poly/cotton LycraŽ with a low profile pad positioned over each hip. These low profile pads are sewn into a slim fitting brief allowing the Hipsters to be discreetly worn under clothing. The one-piece design allows for easy laundering at home or in healthcare facilities according to CDC guidelines.
