HipSaver user friendly hip protector has been designed with the users in mind and it provides the best adaptive solutions to different people's needs. HipSavers are made in several different styles and in 7 sizes for the best comfort and optimum fit. All styles of HipSaver user friendly hip protector incorporate the dual action 'energy absorbing' and 'energy shunting' airPads, carefully positioned to fit snugly over the vulnerable bilateral trochanteric areas and permanently sewn in for maximum safety and convenience. HipSavers with an extra tail bone airPad are also available. All HipSavers are fully launderable and can be tumble-dried at very high temperatures (95 degrees C) as required by institutional laundry regulations.

HipSaver Patient Leaflet Points to note about HipSaver and the HipSaver airPads:

• HipSaver airPad does not take up fluids, such as water, urine or blood. The viscoelastic foam is encapsulated in polyurethane film to form an airtight and watertight pouch. Radio frequency technique is used as the encapsulation process. The pad can be washed at 95 degrees C (boil wash) and tumble dried at high heat.

• Under the body weight the pad slightly inflates - like an air cushion - due to the presence of air trapped in the pouch. The pad is temperature responsive and when worn, becomes soft and pliable, moulding itself into the body contours. 

• HipSaver airPads as well as HipSaver soft hip protector garments have been designed to be compatible with incontinence and will therefore accommodate the largest incontinence wear. HipSaver airPads and HipSaver soft hip protector garments will withstand the harshest laundries that comply with the infection control regulations.
