Description
The Wheaton Pavlik Harness is a soft splint that is used to treat developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in infants. DDH is a condition in which the hip joint is not formed properly. It helps to keep the infant’s hips in a position of controlled flexion and abduction, which helps to correct the misalignment of the hip joint. This allows the head of the femur to deeply mold the acetabulum, stabilizing the hip. The wheaton pavlik harness is designed to be comfortable and easy to use. It has a soft inner lining that helps to prevent skin irritation, and it uses hook-and-loop fasteners for quick and secure adjustments. The wheaton harness for hip dysplasia does not have any bulky buckles, so the infant can be comfortable in any position.
