Study assessing Universal Ultrasound-screening for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip. Study of specific measurements of the hip out of an AP Xray of pelvis to assess the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound imaging for DDH in newborns.
Completed study sponsored by University of Bergen comparing immediate Treatment Compared With Active Sonographic Surveillance in the Management of Mild Hip Dysplasia in Newborn Infants: A Randomized, Controlled Trial
Study sponsored by Assistance Publique-Hopitaux de Paris investigating Early Prevention of Broncho-pulmonary Dysplasia and Neonatal Mortality in Very Preterm Infants Using Low Dose of Hydrocortisone
PubMed Abstract of study that concluded that passive stretching of spastic hamstrings in the hip flexion position resulted in Dynamic Posterior Displacement of the Femoral Head. Medical professionals should be aware of this fact, especially in Spastic Ccerebral Palsy children with a higher migration percentage on radiograph.
PubMed Abstract of Characteristics of Childen with hip displacement in cerebral palsy. Study concluded that hip displacement in CP often occurs already at 2-3 years of age. Range of motion is a poor indicator of hips at risk. Thus early identification and early radiographic examination of children at risk is of great importance. The risk of hip displacement varies according to both CP-subtype and GMFCS
This study is being conducted to gather medium and long-term information regarding the performance and safety of the commercially available DURALOC® Option Ceramic-on-Ceramic Hip Prosthesis System.
The objective of this study is to gather clinical and survivorship information for the C2a-Taper™ Acetabular System, a ceramic on ceramic hip articulating system
Study to investigate the clinical results after different rehabilitation regimens(Limited or unlimited weightbearing after surgery) in Open-wedge High Tibial Osteotomies. The hypothesis is that unlimited weightbearing is beneficial for the healing and rehabilitation
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE of study is to determine whether cerebral outcome is improved if infants born between 24 0/7 and 31 6/7 gestational weeks at birth receive erythropoietin in high dose in the first three days after birth. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES To determine whether early administration of EPO alters the incidence of complications typically associated with preterm birth, i.e. mortality, septicaemia, necrotising enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (oxygen dependency at 36 weeks postmenstrual age), retinopathy, intracranial haemorrhage, white matter disease (periventricular leucomalacia), growth failure, cerebral palsy and handicap at 5 years.
Ongoing study sponsored by the University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston to evaluate the efficacy of fundoplication in premature infants with GERD and BPD.
