It prevents dislocation of the hip joint by controlling ab/adduction and flexion/extension of the hip joint with a special monocentric joint. The SofTec Coxa is easily fit and adjusted to all patient types. The multi-functional orthosis can be used on the left or right-hand side or bilaterally.
Special adjustable joint with just one pivot for abduction/adduction (extending the leg in-wards/outwards) and extension/flexion (extending the leg forwards/backwards)
Secure fit due to sleek, anatomical design

Precision healing process
With the special joint designed by Bauerfeind, SofTec Coxa guides the hip joint safely in a manner appropriate to the indications. Flexion/extension and abduction/adduction are set in an anatomically correct fashion using a single pivot. The monocentric joint can be individually adapted to all body types, provided in two versions: male and female. SofTec Coxa thus holds the head of the hip joint securely in the socket. Movements that could give rise to dislocation are prevented, thus ensuring a positive surgical outcome. In an observational non-interventional study, 95.8% of physicians confirmed its medical effectiveness.
