Testing an AI to screen infant hip problems
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study tests a computer system (DeepDDH) that helps doctors spot hip problems in babies. It uses past ultrasound images to see if the AI can accurately detect developmental dysplasia of the hip.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is between 1 month and 6 months old.
- Your baby had a hip ultrasound at one of two specific hospitals in Shanghai between August 2014 and December 2021.
- The ultrasound images are complete and clear enough for doctors to see all the key parts of the hip.
- Your baby's hip problem is not caused by another health condition like cerebral palsy or a joint infection.

This study looks at babies under 3 months old with certain ultrasound findings of an underdeveloped hip (“hip dysplasia”). It compares outcomes between simply watching the hip and using a brace (when recommended).
This study will test if artificial intelligence (AI) can make newborn screening for inherited metabolic disorders more accurate. If your baby had routine newborn blood spot screening at a Zhejiang screening center between May 2025 and December 2027, their data may help improve how we find these conditions.
This study tests a new software that helps doctors check babies for hip dysplasia using ultrasound. It may make screening easier and more accurate for infants who need it.
This trial tests whether an artificial intelligence tool can help doctors more accurately diagnose hip dysplasia in babies using ultrasound images. It might help your baby get a faster and more precise diagnosis if they are already being checked for a hip problem.
This trial is a worldwide registry that collects information from children with hip dysplasia or who are at higher risk. It helps researchers understand who is affected and how hip evaluations are done, which can improve future care.
This trial checks how well a hip screening program works for Turkish babies born in a specific hospital. It aims to find developmental hip problems early so they can be treated.
