Ultrasound sensitivity in screening for developmental dysplasia of the hip in newborns: Retrospective study

Abstract

Introduction: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the ultrasound sensitivity in screening for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in newborns. DDH is a common musculoskeletal disorder that can lead to long-term complications if not identified early. Ultrasound has emerged as a promising screening tool, but its sensitivity in detecting DDH remains a topic of interest.
