Health professionals' experiences and barriers encountered when implementing hip surveillance for children with cerebral palsy.

Barriers can be encountered at each phase of the hip surveillance process, but there are also factors that act as facilitators. Locally, the results will inform the development of an enhanced state-wide approach to hip surveillance for all children with CP. The identified barriers do not appear unique to the local context, and the findings may be transferable to other settings. Awareness of the potential barriers and facilitators would be valuable to those implementing hip surveillance in other areas.
