Hip orthosis

36 devices · GMDN 36228

Hip orthoses are wearable external devices designed to support, align, or correct hip function after injury, surgery, or deformity. They typically consist of adjustable components like a pelvic girdle, thigh cuff, and articulated hip joint to stabilize movement and reduce strain while promoting recovery or mobility.

These devices are generally reusable and regulated as medical orthotics, often requiring compliance with standards for safety, durability, and clinical effectiveness. They are supplied by orthopedic specialists or medical supply providers, tailored to fit adult patients rather than infants.
