Prim Pavlik Harness MPK690 – Infant Hip Brace for Developmental Dysplasia

Prim Pavlik Harness (Ref. MPK690) — Infant Hip Abduction Brace

The Pavlik Harness by Prim keeps the infant’s hip in proper flexion and abduction, allowing the femoral head to remain correctly centered within the acetabulum. Designed for easy “vest-like” application, skin-friendly comfort, and simple diaper changes — always under medical supervision.

How it helps

• Maintains the hip in ~90°–110° flexion and abduction for proper joint alignment.
• Supports a gentle, gravity-assisted position without forcing the legs.
• Allows daily care and diaper changes without removing the harness.

Main features

• Seamless bonding for smooth contact zones and skin protection.
• Adjustable straps with safety buckles for each hip.
• Back strap keeps abduction by gravity, not by force.
• Soft velour foot boots with micro-velcro closures.
• Padded shoulder straps and front chest band for extra comfort.
• Front strap stabilizes hips at 90°–110° flexion.

Indications

• Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).
• Hip subluxation or congenital hip dislocation.
• Use in infants under pediatric orthopedic supervision.
