FALL MANAGEMENT
Posey Hipsters feature impact absorbing, soft foam pads over the critical fracture
area to help reduce the risk of injuries from a fall, such as hip fractures.
Hipsters Innerwear is made of a comfortable 95% cotton/5% Spandex blend with
a low profile pad over each hip. Hipsters Outerwear is made of a high quality
blend of pre-shrunk 7.8 oz, 50/50 cotton/polyester.
Proper Pad Placement
Select the proper size (see chart below) and have the patient try on the
Hipsters for proper fit. Make sure that Hipster pads cover the hip joint
(greater trochanter). To do this:
1. Have the patient stand up with their arms hanging down by their side.
2. The wrist joints should align with the center of the pad on each side.
3. Press your fingers under one pad and have the patient lift the heel on that
side.
4. You should be able to feel the hip joint moving under the pad.
5. Repeat on the other side. If the pads do not cover the hip joints on each
side, you must re-assess the fit.
