Frequently Asked Questions (Click to Expand)
How does the Ferrara Splint help my child?
The splint is designed to keep the legs apart (abduction), which ensures the head of the femur sits correctly in the hip socket. This is crucial for treating hip dysplasia and preventing sub-luxation.
Is the material safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. The cushions are made of natural rubber and are housed in a soft, printed fabric bag similar to a diaper, ensuring it is gentle against the skin and comfortable for long-term wear.
Can the splint be washed?
The printed fabric bag can typically be cleaned to maintain hygiene. It is recommended to follow local clinical guidance for sanitizing natural rubber components.
