SAFEHIP® Active is a belt with hook-&-loop closure and sewn-in hip protector shields. It is designed for active elderly people who are afraid of falling, alongside temporary use for safety during rehabilitation.
The SAFEHIP® Active hip protector belt is based on our specially horseshoe-shaped shield. The shield technology of SAFEHIP® uses an energy shunting technique to take the fall impact by dispersing the energy from the fall away from the hip area. SAFEHIP® is an evidence-based, clinical and very comfortable hip fracture prevention solution designed to reduce the incidence of hip fractures.
FEATURES • For use in training venues or at home during the mobilisation phase • Indispensable when performing household tasks • To be used over normal clothing • Able to disperse and absorb the impact of a fall and designed to resist multiple falls • Ideal for leisure activities such as hiking, walking etc. • Easy to put on and take off for user and care givers • Belt made of breathable material (AirX) for excellent comfort • Shields made of soft PE foam

It has been tested on more than 7,000 users in clinical trials in Scandinavia, Holland, Germany, Japan and Australia, and the results are unequivocal: SAFEHIP® has a significant effect in reducing the number of hip fractures.
