Filter by:The study will be done retrospectively.The aim of this study is to retrospectively examine the spinal pathologies of patients with a prediagnosis of spinal deformity and for whom spinal radiography is requested and to evaluate the clinical features of these patients.
Neuromuscular scoliosis (SNM) are deformities related to the impairment of normal function of the central nervous system (CNS) and/or peripheral nervous system (PNS) resulting in alterations to the of the functional unit represented by the integrated motor sequence (SIM). At the level of the spine, dysfunction of the SIM results in altered dynamic support of the spine. This results in a control of the trunk that is not harmonious due to the lack of effective mechanisms of muscle compensation. In particular, a greater degree of pelvic tilt with respect to the ground plane, with an increase in the degree of the so-called pelvic obliquity (OP), a fundamental parameter in walking and maintaining the seated posture. Spinal deformity causes severe alterations of the rib cage resulting in respiratory failure that often requires ventilatory supports and is associated with frequent airway infections, including pneumonias, often fatal. SNMs also express other comorbidities: cardiac (heart failure), neurological (epilepsy), nutritional that necessitate careful management multidisciplinary and especially anesthesiological evaluation for the peri-operative management. The surgical treatment of SNM constitutes a topic that is still debated due to both the bio-mechanical peculiarities of SNM and the clinical features, particularly comorbidities, that characterize this patient population. Compared with idiopathic scoliosis surgery, in SNM there is a higher rate of complications. To date, most of the complications are respiratory in nature (23%), followed by complications mechanical of the implanted surgical instrumentation (13%), and surgical site infections (11%). Furthermore, there is evidence that SNM surgery correlates with increased blood loss intraoperative. To date, it is recognized in the literature that the safest and most effective surgical treatment for SNMs is arthrodesis posterior instrumented with pedicle screws extended to the pelvis. In the years, mini-invasive surgical techniques have become increasingly prominent. invasive with the goal of reducing operative time, blood loss and complications themselves.
This study aims to investigate the effects of conditioning with open-label placebos on standard postoperative treatment for patients undergoing surgery for idiopathic scoliosis in a randomized controlled, 6-week trial with 64 AIS patients randomly assigned to one of two arms: Open-label Placebo (COLP) + treatment as usual TAU / TAU control. The study involves collecting data from your child's medical record. At each regular clinic visit, the patient clinical data will be collected by the research coordinator. Surveys will be collected including:• PROMIS for the age group 10 to 18 years.
This research trial will measure how useful Aprepitant is in preventing nausea and vomiting in children having surgery to correct scoliosis (curvature of the spine).
Thirty volunteer patients diagnosed with scoliosis by a specialist physician at Gazi University Hospital Orthopedics and Traumatology Department and subsequently referred to Gazi University Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department for exercise training will be included in the study. The lumbar Pressure Measurement Test with Stabilizer and Rotation Stability Tests will be utilized to evaluate the spinal stability of the patients. Body awareness will be assessed using the Body Awareness Survey, comprising 18 questions. All assessments will be conducted at the Orthopedic Rehabilitation Clinic within the relevant department. The results obtained from this study will elucidate the relationship between body awareness and spinal stability in individuals with scoliosis.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Schroth exercises and kinesiological taping on spinal deformities and serum markers in young adults with scoliosis. The study will include young adults aged 18-21 with scoliosis. A total of 57 participants will be included in the study. Out of 57 participants, 38 have scoliosis, and 19 are healthy. 38 participants will be randomly divided into 2 groups. One group (n=19) will receive only Schroth exercises, and the other group (n=19) will receive both Schroth exercises and kinesiological taping. The laboratory analyses of proteins associated with autophagy (Beclin-1, LC3, and ATG3) and bone-cartilage metabolism (COMP and MMP-3) will be conducted in the Biomedical Engineering Laboratory of our university. Trunk rotation will be assessed using the Adams Forward Bend Test with scoliometer, quality of life will be evaluated with the SRS-22 Quality of Life questionnaire and Quality of life profile for spinal deformities questionnaire, perception of deformity will be measured using the Walter Reed Visual Assessment Scale, and Cobb angles will be evaluated from anterior-posterior X-ray images.
Premarket, interventional, single-arm clinical study, to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Insight GS Growing System in the surgical treatment of Early Onset Scoliosis (EOS). Also, to evaluate the difference in height of the spine and trunk, the success rate of the procedure, monitor adverse events and evaluate the satisfaction of the patient and care providers. The Andromeda Insight Growing System (Insight GS) is intended to treat severe, progressive multi-planar spinal deformities such as early-onset scoliosis while allowing for skeletal growth. The Andromeda Insight Growing System consists of blades, clamps and pedicle screws used to form a distinct spinal construct in growing children. The implanted blade is used to brace the spine during growth and minimize the progression of scoliosis. The components are implanted from a posterior approach and are made from Titanium alloy (Ti6AL-4V-ELI), and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). Patients from 3 to 10 years of age, or who are still skeletally immature, who present early-onset scoliosis and who are considered as able to receive the surgical procedure with the Insight GS system, will be included in the study. Patients will be screened in the outpatient setting of the study site. All participants who meet the eligibility criteria will be invited to participate in the study, which includes screening/pre-op, surgery to install the Insight GS system, and follow-up visits at 6 weeks, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12,. 18 and 24 months for data collection, clinical evaluation, imaging, and monitoring of adverse events.
The purpose of this multi-center, prospective, single-arm registry Post-Approval Study (PAS) is to evaluate the radiographic and clinical outcomes of 100 patients with idiopathic scoliosis treated with the REFLECT™ Scoliosis Correction System, as a condition of HDE approval
The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effects of lycra clothing on balance and respiratory functions in individuals with cerebral palsy with scoliosis, and the secondary aim was to investigate the effects of lycra clothing on motor function, activity limitation and quality of life in these individuals.
The aim of the study is to compare body balance parameters assessed using the AMTI dynamometric platform in children with idiopathic scoliosis (with and without Schroth therapy) compared to control group.
