Comparing In-Brace Correction, Compliance and Quality of Life in Patients with Thoracic Hyperkyphosis Wearing Milwaukee and Lyon Braces
Background: A thoracic curve degree of greater than 45° leads to thoracic hyperkyphosis, and its common treatment method is orthotic treatment. The acceptance rate of spinal orthosis depends on in-brace correction, patient`s compliance and quality of life. Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare in-brace correction, compliance and quality of life in patients with thoracic hyperkyphosis ...
متن کاملResults of the initial in-brace correction-effect
Background Brace treatment for scoliosis is effective. The short term in-brace correction of the Cobb angle is associated with end results and success of bracing. Irrespective of the factors which determine the correction the measurement of the Cobb angle is a possibility to evaluate the brace quality. We have investigated the braces from one orthotist over a fixed period of time and have descr...
