Posey Hipsters
Several studies have documented the efficacy of external hip protectors in preventing hip fractures. Posey Hipsters feature impact-absorbing pads over the critical fracture area to minimize potential damage, including hip fractures, that can occur from a fall. The brief is made from comfortable poly-cotton-Lycra 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 home or institutional laundering.

Hipsters are available in four styles; standard unisex brief, male fly brief, incontinent and E-Z On models. The standard unisex brief (#6016) and male fly brief (#6018) easily slip on over undergarments or can be worn as underwear. The incontinent brief (#6017) features a snap front for easier application over adult diapers. The E-Z On model (#6019) is made of polyester mesh material with hook-and-loop leg straps, and replaceable pads, and is ideal for shower and incontinent use. Hipstes fit comfortably around the patient's waist and features a latex-free elastic waistband. 47% polyester, 47% cotton, 6% Lycra. Latex-free.
