REQUEIRO MOLINA, José Julio et al. Template for measuring the hip with dysplastic development in the breastfed baby. Medisur [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.4, pp. 780-798.  Epub 30-Ago-2022. ISSN 1727-897X.

The success of developmental dysplasia of the hip treatment is closely linked to early intervention, that is, early and safe diagnosis and treatment. The radiographic study has traditionally been based on the measurement of a series of parameters, which is carried out using the goniometer, marking directly on the radiograph. However, this procedure has its disadvantage. The present study aims to expose the characteristics of a template to measure the hip with dysplastic development in infants. It explains how to proceed with the proposed tool; its possibilities and application methodology are argued, and its feasibility from a practical point of view is illustrated. The template allows evaluation of the infant’s hip, regardless the femoral head nucleus ossification; as well as determines if the hip is normal; and if it is pathological, classifies it depending on the degree of severity of the condition.

Palabras clave : Measurements, methods and theories; radiography; ultrasonography; hip dislocation, congenital.
