Abstract
A dynamic hip stabilizer utilized to reduce the risk of postoperative and recurrent traumatic hip dislocations. The hip stabilizer includes a pelvic girdle, at least one thigh cuff, and one or more elements for generating an elastic tensile force between the girdle and cuff. The girdle has an upper portion configured for defining an upper opening for the wearer's waist, a lower portion configured for defining a lower opening for the wearer's hips, and a posterior portion configured for engaging the wearer's lower back. The hip stabilizer further includes one or more elements for engaging the wearer's shoulders to limit movement of the girdle toward the thigh cuffs caused by the elastic tensile force, and one or more elements for stiffening the posterior portion of the girdle.
