Hip surveillance is the process of identifying and monitoring critical early indicators of progressive hip displacement.
The Child Health BC Hip Surveillance Program for Children with Cerebral Palsy aims to ensure that children at risk for hip displacement receive appropriate screening to allow for early and appropriate management. This new program is based on the BC Consensus Statement on Hip Surveillance for Children with Cerebral Palsy that was developed collaboratively by a multi-disciplinary group of stakeholders, representing all regions of the province, based on the best available research evidence while being mindful of the provincial needs and setting.
