Fragility fractures due to osteoporosis represent a significant and growing economic burden on healthcare systems and societies worldwide.
One-third of people over 65 fall each year and the risk of falling increases with age. Falls can seriously impact independence, resulting in disability, changes in lifestyle, reduced activity and as a result social isolation and death.
Most hip fractures result from low-energy falls in elderly patients who have weakened or osteoporotic bone, which can be painful and debilitating, significantly affecting the quality and length of life for seniors.
Fempro Armour’s viscoelastic memory foam offers a revolutionary solution for minimizing hip fractures among the elderly. This advanced material is designed to absorb and dissipate impact forces effectively, providing superior protection compared to traditional padding. Its viscoelastic properties allow the foam to conform to the body’s contours, ensuring a snug, and comfortable fit that doesn’t hinder mobility – a crucial factor for older adults who value independence.
The foam’s ability to absorb shock upon impact significantly reduces the risk of fractures, particularly in vulnerable areas like the hips, which are commonly injured in falls. By integrating Fempro Armour into everyday clothing or wearable devices, it offers a discreet yet highly effective layer of protection by reducing up to 85% of impact energy entering the body, empowering the elderly to live more confidently and safely.
This innovative approach not only addresses a critical health concern but also has the potential to greatly reduce the economic and social burden of hip fractures on individuals, families, and healthcare systems worldwide.
As an registered NDIS provider, Fempro Armour can assist individuals with mobility support, tailored to the individual’s needs and NDIS plan.
Extensive research from around the world, backed by multiple studies*, consistently demonstrates that hip protection significantly reduces the risk of hip injuries resulting from falls.
