Filter by:The study uses a yoga-like isometric posture and botulinum injections to reduce the curves in adolescent idiopathic lumbar scoliosis. Three previous studies show that the yoga pose is effective for reversing scoliotic curves; Botulinum toxin has been approved by the FDA for teenagers. However, no studies using the two of them together have been done until this one.
Anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) is a novel, minimally invasive, growth modulation technique that was recently approved by the FDA under a Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE). The goal of AVBT is to control curve progression by applying compression on the convex side of the spine deformity. While there has been great initial enthusiasm about the technique as an alternate treatment option to spinal fusion for skeletally immature children with scoliosis, there is a need to better understand the long-term outcomes. The purpose of this study is to report the long-term clinical outcomes of skeletally immature patients treated with AVBT, specifically: 1. The effect on three-dimensional spine growth as compared to normal controls 2. Maintenance of major Cobb angle less than or equal to 50 degrees at skeletal maturity 3. Complications associated with both the procedure and the device
The present project aims to test the feasibility of a new management mechanism for inter-visit monitoring of adolescent patients with idiopathic scoliosis that improves the quality and safety of current orthopedic treatments using information and communication technologies (ICT).
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic scoliosis has been identified as a common spinal malalignment that negatively impacts the respiratory system and physical conditioning in adolescents. Hippotherapy is an equestrian intervention that optimizes physical performance and mobility in a bunch of contexts; however, its influence on pulmonary function remains unclear. AIM: This research aimed to analyze the impact of ten weeks of hippotherapy combined with Schroth exercises on ventilatory function and aerobic capacity in AIS. DESIGN: Randomized Controlled Trial SETTING: Outpatients attend a single center that includes a rehabilitation room and recreational riding center. POPULATION: Forty-five patients were arbitrarily recruited to the experimental (N= 22) and control group (N=23). METHODS: Patients in the experimental group received 30 minutes of walking and sitting trot training, 15 sessions split into 2 phases over ten weeks. The two groups attended a 60-minute session of Schroth's intervention, 3 times/ week for 10 weeks. Two-way ANOVA for between-group comparisons and independent t-test for within-group comparisons were used in the statistical analysis.
The aim of this study is to examine the functional parameters of hip and jaw in terms of scoliosis degree and scoliosis pattern in individuals with idiopathic scoliosis.
The investigators collected retrospective data of severe (>80o) and rigid scoliosis patients who underwent preoperative traction before correction surgery from 2016 to 2018. The first group consisted of patients who underwent Cotrel traction exercises and second group underwent continuous-progressively increasing Skull Tongs Femoral Traction (STFT) traction. Posterior fusion was performed in all patients. Intraoperative parameters (blood loss, operation time and level instrumented) and radiologic change (initial, post-traction and postoperative Cobb Angle) was evaluated and analyzed
Kinetic analysis appears to be useful in providing objective information regarding the gait abilities of scoliotic patients which is difficult to be observed in a clinical setting. Objective: the aim of the study was to analyze the hip and knee peak abductor moments during gait in subjects with idiopathic scoliosis.
This is a randomized controlled trial to test effectiveness of the SurgeryPal intervention vs. education control to improve acute and chronic pain and health outcomes in youth undergoing major musculoskeletal surgery. Youth will be randomized on an individual level using a factorial design to SurgeryPal or Education during 2 phases of intervention: 1) pre-operative phase (4 week duration delivered over the 4 weeks leading up to surgery), and 2) post-operative phase (4 week duration following surgery). Thus there will be 4 treatment arms. Participants will undergo 4 assessments, independent of their treatment assignment: T1: Baseline (pre-randomization); T2: acute post-surgery outcomes (daily assessment of acute outcomes beginning day 1 through day 14 after hospital discharge from surgery); T3: Post-surgery follow-up (assessment of outcomes at 3-months post-surgery); T4: Final post-surgery follow-up (assessment of outcomes at 6-months post-surgery).
The objective is to collect data from a per-operative navigation system called SURGIVISIO during scoliosis surgeries. A research program is in progress in order super-impose pre-operative 3D reconstructions of the spine performed with the EOS system on the per-operative 3D reconstructions performed with the SURGIVISIO system. The purpose of the study is to collect the pre and per operatives data in order to perform the research and development program.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of virtual reality after scoliosis surgery in pediatric patients.
