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 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 trial is testing how to assess and manage joint instability in people who have unusually loose (hypermobile) joints. If you have moderate to severe loose joints, you may be able to join after screening checks like movement tests and health history.
This trial tests if cross-legged sitting can help children with hip dysplasia in one hip. It aims to improve hip development without surgery.
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 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.
