BENEFITS
Frejka splint is used for abduction and flexion of the femurs in treating congenital hip dysplasia or dislocation in infants
The device is worn like an ordinary pair of underpants, or diapers, harnessed to the body by straps and Velcroes
The splint keeps the legs in an outward rotated position to ensure that the head of the femur locates with the acetabuli, or cavities of the pelvis
The treatment lasts normally 3 - 4 months, and during this period the hip joints grow into shape, and the dislocation is no more
The legs can now swing normally, and the child will have no problems with walking
Manufactured from 12 mm top quality latex-free foam
Air circulation for relief, does not cause skin irritation
