چکیده
Method Design: observational prospective study on consecutive patients. Participants: the first 12 female (age 13.07±2.05) patients, with idiopathic scoliosis (41.58°±14.52° Cobb), in Sforzesco brace treatment, who had orthogonal synchronous AP and LL low dose EOS x-rays examination, before treatment start (PRE), with brace (IN) and after four months of treatment at immediate brace take-off (OUT).

Brace technology thematic series - The Sforzesco and Sibilla braces, and the SPoRT (Symmetric, Patient oriented, Rigid, Three-dimensional, active) concept
BACKGROUND Bracing is an effective strategy for scoliosis treatment, but there is no consensus on the best type of brace, nor on the way in which it should act on the spine to achieve good correction. The aim of this paper is to present the family of SPoRT (Symmetric, Patient-oriented, Rigid, Three-dimensional, active) braces: Sforzesco (the first introduced), Sibilla and Lapadula. METHODS Th...
متن کاملThe three dimensional analysis of the Sforzesco brace correction
BACKGROUND Scoliosis is a three dimensional deformity, and brace correction should be 3D too. There is a lack of knowledge of the effect of braces, particularly in the sagittal and transverse plane. The aim of this study is to analyse the Sforzesco Brace correction, through all the parameters provided by Eos 3D imaging system. METHOD Design: This is a cross sectional study from a prospective ...

BACKGROUND The conservative treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) has traditionally been divided into two phases-correction and stabilisation-and casts, even if less used today, can be considered the best standard in the correction phase. Till the present, however, no comparison between cast and brace efficacy has been proposed. METHODS This is a prospective cohort study with a r...

Purpose: Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine in which the resulting imbalance accompanied by the changes in muscle and nervous components can harm the postural control. Various treatments have been suggested so far to correct scoliosis, in which using corrective exercises along with brace are essential to limit the growing curvature, improve spine stability and postural cont...
