This study looks at how bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a lung condition in premature babies, affects the long-term health and quality of life of children and their families. Parents or caregivers of children born early with or without BPD can join to compare experiences.
This study compares two surgical approaches to lengthen the Achilles tendon (the cord at the back of the heel) in young children with clubfoot—a condition where the foot is twisted inward and downward. The goal is to find which method works better and causes fewer complications.
This study looks at how certain leg muscles move to see if that can predict how well an Achilles tenotomy (a small procedure to release tight tendon) works for children with idiopathic clubfoot. It may help doctors choose the best timing and approach for treatment.
This study uses ultrasound (a safe imaging test) to measure the distance between the Achilles tendon and nearby nerves in babies with clubfoot on one side. It may help doctors understand the anatomy better for safer treatments.
This study looks at how children with posterior urethral valves (a condition that affects urination) feel about their quality of life as they grow up. It will help doctors understand how these children are doing emotionally and socially, so they can improve care.
This study tests two versions of a questionnaire that measures how children feel about their health. It aims to find out which version works better for children in China with pneumonia, brain or spinal cord tumours, or low platelets.
