The aim of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate the
effectiveness of the neonatal hip instability screening programme. The study involved a four-year observational assessment of a
neonatal hip screening programme. All newborns were examined using
the Barlow or Ortolani manoeuvre within 72 hours of birth; those
with positive findings were referred to a ‘one-stop’ screening clinic
for clinical and sonographic assessment of the hip. The results
were compared with previous published studies from this unit.Aims
Patients and Methods
Our aim was to assess the effectiveness of a protocol involving
a standardised closed reduction for the treatment of children with
developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in maintaining reduction
and to report the mid-term results. A total of 133 hips in 120 children aged less than two years
who underwent closed reduction, with a minimum follow-up of five
years or until subsequent surgery, were included in the study. The
protocol defines the criteria for an acceptable reduction and the
indications for a concomitant soft-tissue release. All children
were immobilised in a short- leg cast for three months. Arthrograms
were undertaken at the time of closed reduction and six weeks later. Follow-up
radiographs were taken at six months and one, two and five years
later and at the latest follow-up. The Tönnis grade, acetabular
index, Severin grade and signs of osteonecrosis were recorded.Aims
