Cast Life
A Parent’s Guide to DDH (Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip Explained)
‘DDH is one of the most common congenital abnormalities and it is remarkable that there is so little information out there. This book is essential reading for parents, and indeed healthcare workers, who are involved in the care of children who have the condition and I would love to see it in clinics around the world.’ Professor N. M. P. Clarke ChM, DM, FRCS, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
When a child is diagnosed with Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) parents experience a wide variety of emotions and responses, often having an overwhelming need to understand everything about the condition and what the future holds for their child. This exceptional and comprehensive book covers everything you need to know about DDH. Providing explanations of this common condition, outlining the various treatments involved, and detailing what life may be like for you and your child in a cast, this invaluable book also deals with the emotional side of DDH.
Written by a parent of a child with DDH specifically for other parents, this book doesn’t bombard you with medical jargon, but equips you with the knowledge and facts you need to understand and get to grips with DDH. With comments and case studies from other parents as well as expert comment and advice, Cast Life is a must have book for anyone on their DDH journey. Part of the royalties are donated to charity.
