Description
Not detecting the condition causes obvious longterm disabilities.[…] all infants should be screened through careful precise physical examination.[…] ultrasound screening is only recommended for infants having the risk factors. Since the incidence of congenital dislocation of the hip is likely, the routine examinations should be administered for all infants during the first year of life.[…] with an odds ratio of 1/7, Pregnancy age was considered to be a risk factor for having DDH.
