Rhino Cruiser Hip Abduction Pediatric Brace

Rhino Cruiser Hip Abduction Pediatric Brace is a hip abduction brace fabricated from polypropylene, for infants to 3 years of age with hip dysplasia. The Rhino hold the hips in abduction, whilst allowing the child to walk. Can be used full time or during the night only. Often the Rhino is used after treatment with a pavlik harness, once the child begins to walk.

The Rhino Cruiser Hip Abduction brace has been prescribed for your baby or toddler to keep the hip joints in a position of abduction and flexion, like frogs legs. This position encourages the ball of the joint to sit into the socket. This allows the development of the shallow part of the socket (acetabulum) and the strengthening of loose ligaments. Infants are able to roll, sit, crawl and toddlers can actually walk in the brace. 

Features:

• Durable plastic shell lined with closed-cell foam
• Lightweight and open
• Easy to apply
• Easy to clean – foam will not contain body fluids or excrement
• 90 degree hip flexion, 60 degree abduction 

Indications:

• Congenital hip dislocation
• Hip Dysplasia

Fitting the Rhino, to apply the brace:

• Lie the baby on their back and lift up the legs (from beneath the bottom) to slide the brace underneath their bottom.
• Once the brace is roughly in position, making sure the crossbar is as close as possible to the baby, fasten each thigh into the brace using the Velcro straps. The foam padding should wrap around the thigh and tuck tightly into the back of the brace.
• The straps should be then done up firmly around the thigh. The waist strap should be then fastened with about three fingers under the strap whilst doing up the Velcro (This allows some room under the waist strap so that it is not too tight for sitting, eating and inhaling).
