چکیده

Background For adult scoliosis patients with chronic low back pain, bracing is initially indicated before spinal surgery is considered. Until recently, the effect bracing treatment has on middle to long-term pain reduction has not been reported. Promising results have been documented in the short-term for the application of a sagittal re-alignment brace in patients with spinal deformities and suffering from pain; however mid-term or long-term results are not yet available.

For specific bracing of this patient group we use simple physical tests to predict the brace type the patient is most likely to benefit from. Based on these physical tests we have developed a simple functional classification of "unspecific" l...
