This study evaluated the quality of sonographic screening in the outpatient sector and the treatment requirements of referred children.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We performed a retrospective analysis of the patient data of 384 neonates collected in consultations performed between April 2016 and April 2019.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In total, 74% (n = 284) of neonates presented a hip type Ia\/b. Treatment (abduction brace or Fettweis cast) was required in 32% (n = 122) of cases. The treatment duration was significantly correlated with age at first presentation (Pearson's r = 0.678; p = 0.001). The treatment duration for patients aged &gt; 200 days old at first presentation was twice as long as those aged 100 days at first presentation. Patients with public health insurance require referral by a consultant. Developmental dysplasia of the hip as referral diagnosis could not be confirmed in control examination in 64% (n = 132) of cases. Of the public health insured children, 97% (n = 200) were referred through a consultant paediatrician.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We identified deficits in performing and interpreting the Graf method of ultrasound examination. A total of 64% of referred pathological hips turned out to be physiological configurations in our control examination. The future goal should be to increase anatomical knowledge of the newborn hip and ensure the correct use of Graf ultrasound method. Advanced training courses are recommended and necessary.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Level of evidence<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>IV<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1302\/1863-2548.15.200084","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,5]],"date-time":"2021-01-05T04:28:06Z","timestamp":1609820886000},"page":"42-47","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Paediatric hip ultrasound: Uncertainties in examination and choice of treatment"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Florian","family":"Bucher","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Gie\u00dfen und Marburg - Standort Marburg, Marburg, Hessen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"G\u00f6rg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Gie\u00dfen und Marburg - Standort Marburg, Marburg, Hessen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefanie","family":"Weber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Nephrology, Pediatrics II, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Gie\u00dfen und Marburg - Standort Marburg, Marburg, Hessen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christian-Dominik","family":"Peterlein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedics and Trauma Surgery, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Gie\u00dfen und Marburg - Standort Marburg, Marburg, Hessen, Germany"},{"name":"Auguste-Viktoria-Klinik, Bad Oeynhausen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1863-2548.15.200084","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11999-013-2846-5"},{"key":"bibr2-1863-2548.15.200084","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01356824"},{"key":"bibr3-1863-2548.15.200084","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00132-008-1237-1"},{"key":"bibr4-1863-2548.15.200084","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/BPO.0000000000001166"},{"key":"bibr5-1863-2548.15.200084","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MOP.0000000000000574"},{"key":"bibr6-1863-2548.15.200084","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11999-015-4668-0"},{"key":"bibr7-1863-2548.15.200084","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00132-008-1239-z"},{"key":"bibr8-1863-2548.15.200084","unstructured":"Bundesausschuss Gemeinsamer.
