HipSavers are innovative soft hip protector undergarments, designed to reduce impact related injuries in the elderly people with compromised bone strength (osteoporosis).

Hip fracture is the most serious injury in the older people. Many people, who sustain hip fracture lose their independence or die. Currently there are well over 70 thousand of hip fractures per year in the United Kingdom and the numbers are predicted to grow.

The effectiveness of external hip protectors has been widely researched and debated and it is well accepted that when worn, hip protectors can reduce the risk of fall related hip injuries.

HipSaver hip protectors are available as all soft undergarments, long casuals and mid length pyjama pants.

All HipSavers incorporate proven and patented soft protective pads that reduce the forces generated by falls to well below the fracture threshold, thus protecting the vulnerable trochanteric areas from the damaging effects of direct impact.

HipSaver undergarments are made in several styles to meet the elderly patient needs (i.e. incontinence, compromised grip strength, backward falling), male/female versions and in 7 sizes. They are lightweight, comfortable, durable and affordable. All HipSavers are launderable at 950C and can be tumble dried at high temperatures as is required by institutional laundry and cross infection prevention regulations.

The foam is sufficiently soft to protect patients from the effects of falling, but firm enough to support walking on the mats.

FallSmart bedside mats are made in high visibility colours - yellow, cerise and lime green - and have specially tapered edges to minimise the risk of staff or patients tripping over the mats, while in use.
