An infant hip harness is a soft, adjustable orthopedic device designed to support an infant’s hips and legs in a specific position. Clinically, it helps correct or prevent developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) by keeping the hips and knees bent while gently spreading the thighs apart.
These harnesses are typically reusable and regulated as medical devices, with classification and supply rules varying by jurisdiction. They are often prescribed by healthcare providers for infants diagnosed with hip instability or dysplasia, requiring proper fitting and supervision for safe use.
