Aims:
To identify the association between potential risk factors with developmental
dysplasia of the hip in neonates.
Study
Design: A cross-sectional study.
Place
and Duration of the Study: Laboratory of Lifestyle,
Division of Health
Sciences and Engineering, Campus
Celaya Salvatierra, University of Guanajuato Mexico, between June 2014 and
February 2015.
Methodology:
We include 100 newborns, 36 male and 64 females with age between 4 and 28 days
old. Data on
birth weight, family
history of hip
dysplasia, obstetric presentation,
mode of delivery, swaddling was obtained. The
diagnosis of hip dysplasia hip ultrasonography with Graf technique was
confirmed. For association Chi squared
and p value, for the effect was calculated Odds Ratio and confidence intervals at
95%.Results:It was found that obstetric presentation and swaddling were associated
with developmental dysplasia of the
hip (p <0.05) with OR of
5.32 and 4.91
respectively, and the
association was confounded by
area of residence with OR adjusted 2.94.
Conclusion:
It was conclude that the most important risk factors for developmental
dysplasia of the hip in this population were obstetric presentation and
excessive swaddling.
