Rare Hip Conditions Registry (RHCR)

Rare Hip Conditions Registry (RHCR)

Call for Investigators

We are piloting RHCR with 3 conditions:

  1. The hip in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA)

  2. The hip in Rett Syndrome

  3. The hip in Down Syndrome

If you are interested in joining (or championing a particular hip condition), we would love to hear from you!

Interested investigators can contribute to as many or as few of the included conditions as desired.

Please complete the RHCR investigator interest survey to indicate your interest.

Registry Objectives:

Develop a multi-centre, international, prospective registry aimed at better understanding:

  • the natural history

  • optimal treatments

  • outcomes

for a number of rare pediatric hip conditions.
