BACKGROUND Few studies have evaluated long-term outcome after bracing using validated health related quality of life outcome measures. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term outcome in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) 12 years or more after treatment with the Boston brace. METHODS 109 (80%) of 135 patients (7 men) with AIS treated with the Boston brace at a mean of 19...
BACKGROUND Bracing can effectively treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), but patient outcomes have not been compared by brace type. We compared outcomes of AIS patients treated with Rigo Chêneau orthoses (RCOs) or custom-molded Boston-style thoracolumbosacral orthoses (TLSOs). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patient records from one scoliosis center from 1999 through 2014. Patients...
Background Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) can affect spine mobility and gait mechanisms. In some of the related science research it is showed that the kinematic differences in the spine, pelvis and lower limb may contribute to the causation and progression of idiopathic scoliosis. Various treatment methods have being used for scoliosis, however using brace is a commonly used method in th...
Introduction There are a wide variety of brace applications available today with different outcomes and different characteristics. The purpose of this study is to compare in-brace corrections of the series applied today to recent Chêneau series braces as presented in literature. methodology All patients were registered and fulfil the Scoliosis Research Society inclusion criteria for studies on ...
Braces today are named according to the author's name or town. The existing classification of braces considers only the anatomical spinal section involved (C: cervical; T: thoracic; L: lumbar; S: sacral; Orthosis). The absence of a more detailed classification do not allow to really distinguish between the different braces and to have a common language between the conservative treatment experts...
Bracing is a widely used treatment of scoliosis, but there is still no consensus about its actual effect. Previous studies were based on global descriptors of the spine shape (Cobb angle, plane of maximal deformity, etc.). We present a new method to analyze braces effects at a finer scale and to find which vertebral levels are significantly affected by this treatment. The proposed method compar...
UNLABELLED Skeletally immature patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis are at risk for curve progression. Although numerous nonoperative methods have been attempted, including physical therapy, exercise, massage, manipulation, and electrical stimulation, only bracing is effective in preventing curve progression and the subsequent need for surgery. Brace treatment is initiated as either fu...
