Internet-Based Clubfoot Resources

Abstract

In view of finding out the size of and demand created by clubfoot in our country, we have designed, created and implemented an integrated information system for the congenital idiopathic clubfoot. On the basis of the information and data in this system, the parents have an information resource at their disposal that enables them reach a decision concerning the way in which the deformity of their child could be treated. These resources are addressed to the parents of the children diagnosed with congenital idiopathic clubfoot. For this side, we have developed a multimedia material which combines and integrates various types of media: images, diagrams and text, to give as many details on congenital idiopathic clubfoot as possible, to enlarge the information on this topic in Romanian on the Internet. This material was created in hypertext HTML with the help of AceHTML and was published on the Internet at the address http://piciorstramb.bravehost.com.
