Treating developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) with the Pavlik harness is safe and successful in about 90% of cases. But what about the 10% of patients for whom this treatment is not effective or causes complications The complimentary JBJS webinar on Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2016 at 8:00 PM EST will focus on how orthopaedists can:

• Identify patient characteristics that help predict Pavlik harness failure
• Understand the role of ultrasound in managing DDH
• Recognize and prevent complications from using the harness
• Successfully treat patients who need a post-Pavlik approach

Following presentations about JBJS-published research by Daniel Sucato, MD; Lucas Murnaghan, MD; and Wudbhav Sankar, MD, DDH expert Scott Mubarak, MD will expand on all three author presentations.
