Hip Protectors

Medical devices that protect people from fall related hip fractures and injuries have been on the market for many years. Hard shell hip protectors have very low user compliance because of their bulkiness and people do not feel comfortable wearing them. Soft shell hip protectors are more comfortable but have very low impact absorption because they are simply a piece of foam.

The newest technology in hip protectors is here: ComfiHips®! Our pads were designed in conjuction with the University of Florida Department of BioMechanics. They were designed with three goals in mind: high impact absorption, very high user compliance, and affordability. When wearing ComfiHips®, you will feel comfortable and have an ease of mind that you are protected from a possible fall related injury.

In fact, since ComfiHips® has been on the market, we have not had one return or complaint! Why??? Because our main feedback from our customers has been: I feel more secure when I wear ComfiHips® and I forget that I am wearing ComfiHips® because they are so light weight!

If you have any more questions about ComfiHips®, or how to protect your loved one, please visit us at www.comfihips.com.

Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a decrease in bone mineral density that makes you very susceptible to fractures and falling. There are various severities of this disease and people who have it, need to take every precautionary measure to protect themselves.

Lifestyle changes must be made to avoid a possible fracture if you have osteoporosis. Diet, exercise, strengthening your balance and using a hip protector to protect you against injuries when you fall are great ways of intervention. ComfiHips® is here to protect you. Our pads not only absorb up to 87.2% of impact from a lateral fall, they actually absorb more impact the harder someone falls!

NADONA in Las Vegas

This past week, ComfiHips® was featured at the National Director of Nursing Conference in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada! People from all over the United States were being introduced to the newest technology in hip protectors on the market.
Iris Onrot - co-inventor of ComfiHips® and featured in the picture - explained to the Directors of Nursing along with VP's of Clinical Services at the conference, what separates ComfiHips® from all other hip protectors.

At the end of every presentation, the reaction people gave her was astounding. Not only were they impressed with our over whelming statistics, amazing user compliance, and proven high impact absorption... they could not believe she had them on and they could not see it! She said, "I wear ComfiHips® at the conference to show people how stream line the pads are in our undergarments. People do not want to wear a bulky hip protector but they want the reassurance to know they are protected in case they fall."
