Condition: Varus-Derotation Osteotomy Surgery · Iron-deficiency Anemia · Pelvic Osteotomy Surgery · Sponsor: University of British Columbia
Varus-derotation osteotomy (VDRO) is a surgery to prevent or address hip displacement in children. Many children having this surgery have cerebral palsy or other neuromotor disorders, who have a higher rate of malnutrition, including low iron or anemia. This can affect their surgical outcomes, such as increasing their need for blood transfusions. This project aims to develop a preoperative nutritional program for VDRO patients, to improve their surgical outcomes and decrease their need for transfusions. This may include taking iron supplementation for patient with low iron or anemia. Participants will undergo a nutrition program before their surgery.
