Improving Neonatal Hip Screening With Artificial Intelligence
Sponsor: Murdoch Childrens Research Institute
Summary
The goal of this trial is to pilot a portable ultrasound device that uses artificial intelligence to screen for hip dysplasia. Researchers will gather data to understand the feasibility of performing a larger trial in birthing hospitals. It will also seek to collect initial data on how well the scan compares to the standard hip screening performed soon after birth. Participants will: * Have the portable ultrasound performed on their baby before they are discharged from hospital * Have a diagnostic ultrasound performed on their baby at 6-weeks of age * Complete a short questionnaire about the experience of having the measurement performed on their baby

Artificial intelligence augmented ultrasound
The hip ultrasound is performed using a handheld device (Exo Iris) that is a pocket-sized ultrasound probe and is run through an application on an IoS (Apple mobile) operation system. A real-time algorithm detects and records the anatomical landmarks.
