- W2077127947 abstract "Abstract Objectives: To examine the utility of clinical findings, laboratory markers and X‐ray radiographs (X‐ray) in the assessment of children presenting with an acute non‐traumatic limp. Methods: A retrospective review of all children who received hip X‐rays over a 2 year period in the Children's Emergency Department, Starship Children's Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand. Children were identified from the radiology database and clinical notes reviewed. Children aged 0–12 years old were included if the limp was acute (less than 2 weeks of duration) with no history of trauma. X‐rays were reported by a consultant paediatric radiologist. Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed to determine predictors of osteomyelitis and septic arthritis. Receiver operator curves were used to assess the optimum cut‐off points for C reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and white cell count (WCC). Results: A total of 350 patients were enrolled. There were 21 (6%) abnormal X‐rays . Fever, non‐weight bearing, raised white cell count, raised erythrocyte sedimentation rate and raised CRP were all associated with increased risk of septic hip or osteomyelitis. The optimum inflammatory marker cut‐off was a CRP of 12 with a sensitivity of 87% and specificity of 91%. Conclusion: In acute non‐traumatic limp, X‐rays of the hips diagnose slipped upper femoral epiphysis, as such they should be routinely used from the age of 9 years upwards. Below this age they are of little value. Inflammatory markers have utility in risk‐stratifying children and selecting a group in whom to proceed with definitive tests to exclude osteomyelitis or septic hip. Children with a short history and minimal symptoms can be managed with appropriate follow up and no investigations." @default.
