Filter by:Several measurements are used to evaluate hip dysplasia in hip ultrasound of children. Despite having being used since the 1980s, reliability studies have failed to find acceptable reliaiblity values for the gold standard ultrasound methods. This study will evaluate three ultrasound measurement methodologies in a high quality controlled setting, to investigate the best achieveable reliability and agreement of the investigated measurements used in hip dysplasia diagnostics.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of physical therapy and rehabilitation applications on the hip and defined functional parameters in children with developmental hip dysplasia.
The orientation of the femoral neck in relation to the coronal or transcondylar axis of the distal femur is known as the femoral version. It is categorised as femoral anteversion when the femoral neck axis is anteriorly rotated in relation to transcondylar axis, while femoral head axis is anterior in relation to the femur coronal plane; or femoral retroversion when the femoral head-neck axis points are posterior to the femoral coronal plane. Some studies suggest that conventional radiography cannot adequately measure femoral version, and should be avoided in favour of more precise methods using computed tomography (CT) scanning. CT imaging is currently the reference method for measuring femoral version. However, its clinical use is limited by issues such as high levels of radiation exposure, which can adversely affect patients, especially children. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered an alternative for measuring femoral version; however, it is expensive, time consuming and subject to motion artifacts. The associated costs and risks of MRI increase when anaesthesia is needed for the examination. The EOS imaging system could provide an alternative to the previously mentioned techniques. It uses lower doses of irradiation and the sterEOS software allows the production of 3D images. This study aims to compare the accuracy of the EOS imaging system with CT for the measurement of hip parameters in individuals aged 13 years and older. In addition, this study aims to correlate EOS and CT parameters with gait analysis and compare the ability of EOS and CT to predict gait abnormalities.
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is the most common childhood hip condition. When caught early, bracing is the most frequently used treatment; however, the brace can disrupt important mother-baby bonding time in the newborn period and present challenges to daily living. In babies with mild DDH, some studies have suggested that their hips may improve naturally as they grow and develop. This study will look at whether careful monitoring can be just as good as bracing for babies diagnosed with mild DDH less than 3 months of age, potentially avoiding unnecessary treatment. This will be the first study to look at this question with babies being treated at different hospitals in seven different countries, so the results will make an impact on children and families worldwide.
This study is to evaluate the outcome of using transfixing hip k wire in Developmental dysplastic hip in patients with hypoplastic head and severe generalised ligamentous laxity.
The hip is formed by the acetabulum, the proximal femur and soft tissues joining them (capsule, teres ligament, transverse ligament and pulvinar). The acetabulum is a complex structure in the growing child. It is formed by the joined pubis, This junction is called tri radiate cartilage, which is responsible for acetabular growth. The external surface of the acetabulum is covered by a horse shoe-shaped articular cartilage. The transverse ligament joins both extremes of the articular cartilage inferiorly.
Adequate growth and development of the hip depends on two main factors: concentric positioning of femoral head into the acetabular cavity and adequate balance in growth between tri-radiate and acetabular cartilage. Any alteration in these two conditions leads to a hip dysplasia & dislocation
The treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) remains challenging, yet recent advances have refined our understanding of how best to survey for the condition during infancy, minimize complications during early treatment, and refine the selection of patients who can best benefit from hip preservation surgery. The ideal continued target would be to prevent missed hip dislocations or dysplasia during the infant period, prevent avascular necrosis (AVN) during early treatment, and decrease the incidence of total hip arthroplasty in adulthood related to undertreated DDH, The goal of the treatment is to achieve a concentric reduction of the femoral head into the acetabulum.
Explore the influence of hip replacement on lower extremity hemodynamics in Crowe Ⅳ hip dysplasia patient.
Psychosocial conditions are common in young adults with hip pain including depression, anxiety, pain catastrophizing, and narcotic use. The incidence of these conditions is not well defined. Interventions to optimize psychosocial conditions with non-surgical or surgical treatments has not been investigated. The goal of this project is to determine the incidence of psychosocial conditions in the young adult population with hip pain and determine if cognitive based therapy can improve clinical outcomes in these individuals.
