1) What is the Ortolani test for?
2) Is the hip abducted or adducted?
1) The presence of a posteriorly dislocated hip that is reducible
2) Abducted
The combination of what two maneuvers has a high specificity for DDH in infants <3 months?
Barlow and Ortolani
1) What happens w a Barlow test when the hip is dislocatable? What abt if its subluxatable?
2) What does a positive Barlow test indicate?
1) If hip is dislocatable, posterior movement and palpable clunk may be detected as femoral head exits acetabulum (“jerk of exit”)
2) If the hip is subluxatable, there is subtle sliding movement or feeling of looseness (“tennis ball moving in a soup bowl”)
-A reduced hip that is subluxatable or dislocatable
1) What does Barlow test test for?
2) What is done?
1) Ability to sublux or dislocate an intact but unstable hip
2) Hip is gently adducted with pronation of examiner’s hand (downward pressure no longer recommended)
Describe the positive Ortolani Sign for DDH
1) “Clunk” felt as the femoral head, which lies posterior to the acetabulum, enters the acetabulum (reduced to normal position).
2) Palpable movement of the femoral head back into place
1) How is an ortolani test done?
2) What should you avoid?
1) From an adducted position and hip flexed to 90°, the hip is gently abducted with supination of the examiner’s hand while lifting the greater trochanter anteriorly
2) Avoid extreme abduction
1) Define hip dysplasia. Does it need to be Dxd early?
2) What is the Ortolani Test for?
1) Instability or dislocation of the hip in a newborn or infant.
Needs to be detected early to intervene
2) Test for the presence of a posteriorly dislocated hip that is reducible
