Statistics have shown that there are about 5 million cases of hip fracture every year, and nine out of every ten hip fractures occur after a fall. Efforts to treat hip fractures caused by these mishaps consume a lot of money.
Amazingly, an innovation of hip-protecting air floater has surfaced just in time to curtail these alarming figures. The hip protector is designed to be worn around the waist. Its operation is powered by a battery that lasts for about 7 days.
The inventors seek to prevent as many as possible fractures that arise from falling. This is even more crucial for the elderly, whose bodies are fragile. Aside from protecting the body, the hip protector will also help save lots of money which would have been used for hip fracture treatments.
