Dysplasia Of The Hip

Although there is an agreed national protocol for the clinical screening of developmental hip dysplasia (DDH) there are no national guidelines for the use of ultrasound to detect this condition. The increased incidence of babies requiring surgery for this condition across the bay has led us to institute a selective screening programme in line with best clinical practice. This article describes care pathways in primary and hospital care in some detail and will therefore be of direct clinical relevance to the midwive , health visitors, general practitioners, physiotherapists, paediatricians, and orthopaedic surgeons involved in the management of babies at higher risk of DDH. We also outline the physiotherapy and orthopaedic management of children with this condition. Feedback or suggestions relating to the recently introduced screening programme would be welcomed.

We thank Drs Harcke and Walter for their valid comments. We agree that ultrasound has an important role in the detection of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), as we also stated in the conclusion of the paper,1 but we are still uncertain with regard to the use of ultrasound in screening for DDH. In our study universal or selective ultrasound screening possibly had an effect in reducing the rate of late DDH as compared with just clinical screening.1
