Cross-legged sitting for hip dysplasia
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial tests if cross-legged sitting can help children with hip dysplasia in one hip. It aims to improve hip development without surgery.

- Aged 9 months to 10 years old
- Has hip dysplasia on one side only
- Otherwise healthy
- No history of nerve or muscle disorders

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 study compares hip arthroscopy (a minimally invasive surgery) with non-surgical treatments (like physical therapy) for people with borderline hip dysplasia. It aims to find out which approach works better for reducing pain and improving function.
This trial tests using a special ligament (the ligamentum teres) to treat hip dysplasia in children. It may help children whose earlier treatments, like closed reduction or open reduction through the groin, have not worked.
This trial compares a structured exercise and patient education program with standard care in people with hip dysplasia. It may help improve hip and groin pain and function, especially if you are not getting the usual surgery (periacetabular osteotomy, or PAO).
This study is for people with mild hip dysplasia and a labral tear. Doctors will use a camera (arthroscopy) to look inside the hip and fix the problem, aiming to ease pain and improve function.
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.
