Filter by:Children with spastic diplegia are at an increased risk of spinal deformities. The most common types of these spinal deformities are scoliosis and kyphosis. Thoracic hyper-kyphosis may adversely affect balance in children with cerebral palsy . The treatment approaches for hyper-kyphosis involved both conservative and surgical treatments. The Conservative approach includes corrective exercises, positioning, and spinal braces. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of conservative orthotic management for kyphotic posture on balance control, and fall risk in cerebral palsied children of spastic diplegia.
Investigators performed a prospective randomized controlled trial for comparing postoperative clinical and radiological outcomes between C3 laminectomy with laminoplasty and C3-6 laminoplasty.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of rıgıd brace treatment on spinopelvic parameters and GAP score in patients with adolescent hyperkyphosis. This was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data. Thirty-two patients who were diagnosed with structural hyperkyphosis and treated with CAD-CAM design rigid brace were included in the study in Formed Healthcare Scoliosis Treatment and Brace Center between December 2015-2020.
Prospective, Multicenter, Case-Control Analysis of the VersaTie Posterior Fixation System to Prevent Proximal Junctional Failure in Long Posterior Spinal Fusion Constructs for Adult Patients
Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients treated with minimally invasive approach, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical and postoperative complications.
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures often lead to postural changes, chronic spinal pain conditions and limited functionality. Orthoses that straighten the spine have been shown in studies to have a positive effect on pain, posture and the functional state of patients with a fresh vertebral fracture. The planned study investigates the effect of the orthosis "Spinomed active" in patients aged ≥ 65 years with at least one non-acute osteoporotic vertebral fracture (at least 3 months ago) and chronic back pain.
This is a post-market clinical follow-up study that use questionnaires such as Visual Analog Scale (VAS), the Neck Disability Index (NDI), or the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) to compare the clinical improvement effects before and after surgery.
The effects of balanced posture and postural changes have been evaluated in specific populations with different factors that can affect body postures and balance, such as age, musculoskeletal system, and other metabolic diseases. Studies on postural kyphosis and balance involvement are very few in the literature especially in the health population. Of the few studies that have evaluated kyphosis and balance, most are limited by small sample size and the exclusion of men. Many have focused primarily on the geriatric population. The determination that the effect of thoracic kyphosis posture on trunk biomechanical alignment may be related to balance may contribute to new treatment recommendations in this area. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the thoracic kyphosis posture has an effect on static balance.
Degenerative cervical kyphosis with stenosis (DCKS) is a common cervical spine degenerative disease, causing pain, numbness, and weakness of limbs, which seriously affect the quality of life of the patient. Surgery is an effective way to treat this condition, however, the best surgical procedure is still controversial. Anterior spinal canal reconstruction and fusion surgery (ACRF) is a new surgical procedure that previously proposed by our team, it combines the advantages of both the conventional anterior and posterior approach. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ACRF surgery for treating DCKS. A multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial was designed. Eligible patients will be randomly divided into three groups, including the ACRF group, the conventional anterior surgery group, and the conventional posterior surgery group. Demographic data, surgery Information, and follow-up results will be collected and compared between groups.
It has been reported that the head protrudes forward relative to the body from the sagittal plane associated with the anterior shifting of the line of gravity (LOG) relative to the base of support (BOS). On the other hand, the center of gravity (COG) has changed with the forward head posture (FHP) and is related to mechanical and musculoskeletal modifications due to postural control, which affects the whole body balance. Griegel-Morris et al. Reported that, after evaluating eighty-eight healthy participants, 66% had a forward head posture (FHP). In addition, he stated that the inverted head posture in the forward head posture will not only cause neck problems, but also can extend to the shoulder joint and thoracic spine. As a result, it causes a general imbalance in the musculoskeletal system. Jung-Ho Kang and his colleagues examined the effect of daily sitting times of computer users on dynamic and static balance and stated that balance ability decreased in heavy computer users. Another study on forward head posture (IBP) revealed that it limits ankle joint movement, especially in ankle plantarflexion.
