Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Pediatric screening

Background:

  • Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) requires early detection.
  • A national screening program for DDH has been in place since the 1960s.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize the historical context of the national DDH screening program.
  • To note the specific changes in screening schedules over time.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical screening protocols for developmental dysplasia of the hip.
  • Analysis of changes in the national screening program timeline.

Main Results:

  • Infant screening for DDH was historically conducted at birth, six weeks, and eight months.
  • The eight-month check for DDH was removed from the national screening schedule in 2008.

Conclusions:

  • The national screening program for developmental dysplasia of the hip has undergone modifications.
  • Changes in screening schedules may impact early detection rates.
