Filter by:This will be a prospective study to determine the association between specific genotypes, epigenetics, behavioral, social and biological factors, with the phenotypes, defined by pain perception, postoperative pain, analgesic effects, side effects to perioperative analgesics, chronic postoperative pain, and gene expression in patients following pectus excavatum repair.
For scoliotic surgeries, Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) can add to the multimodal approach for perioperative pain management with decreasing the opioids requirement, improving recovery and decreasing ICU stay.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a common pain medication (gabapentin) on chronic postsurgical pain in pediatric patients who require surgery for idiopathic scoliosis.
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and clinical significance of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in children with mild-moderate idiopathic scoliosis (IS).
This study evaluates in a prospectively collected multicenter cohort the existence, characteristics and determinants of EBPCA, the obtained results and their determinant, the rate of over- and under-treatment and their determinants.
This study aims to estimate the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency among patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, to calculate the differences in serum vitamin D levels, Cobb angles, spinal bone mass densities, and serum alkaline phosphatase levels between genders in the sample, and to assess the possibility of a correlation between any of these factors in those surgical patients.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional spinal deformity with an unknown cause that affects adolescents aged 10 or older. A standing posterior-anterior radiograph with a Cobb angle greater than 10 degrees is used to make the diagnosis. Depending on the severity of the spinal deformity, conservative treatments and surgery are used to treat AIS. Patients whose spinal curvature is greater than 45 degrees are typically considered for surgery. The majority of patients with AIS receive conservative treatments to prevent and slow the progression of the curve. 2 Orthotic intervention (OI) and scoliosis-specific exercise (SSE) are commonly recommended by the International Society on Scoliosis Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Treatment for patients with a curvature between 20 and 45 degrees. Self correction exercises are the group of spinal extension, lateral spinal flexion and rotational exercises performed to correct spinal deviation. Exercises are performed in a different fundamental postures.
This study aims to identify whether an accelerated physiotherapy led rehabilitation programme for adolescents undergoing idiopathic scoliosis correction surgery can be delivered safely and effectively post-operatively, and whether it might improve activity levels and quality of life outcomes for the study group. This research is being conducted as previous research indicates that up to 41% of patients who have surgical correction of their scoliosis either return to athletic activity at a lower level than before, or they do not return to athletic activity at all. This is despite significant advancement in the instrumentation being used in recent years which makes the corrections more stable and robust. Some studies have shown that surgically treated AIS patients have significantly reduced physical function and quality of life scores, and that this could be improved with exercise. So far no trials have investigated whether post-operative rehabilitation can improve quality of life for these patients. The initial study will be a pilot study, comprising of 20 participants in a small, pragmatic randomised controlled trial (RCT). It will be conducted at The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, a specialist National Health Service (NHS) orthopaedic centre. Adolescents (between 11-18 years of age) who have a diagnosis of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and are on the waiting list for surgical correction of this scoliosis will be included. The study will compare a post-operative accelerated rehabilitation programme (commenced at 6 weeks post surgery) with usual care and investigate if the accelerated intervention can be delivered safely and effectively after this procedure. Following surgery, both groups will have the same inpatient rehabilitation up until the point of discharge home. The intervention group will then complete 12 sessions of physiotherapy as an outpatient, which starts at 6 week post-op. The usual care group will not have any further physiotherapy, in line with current standard practice at this centre. Both groups will be assessed using patient reported outcome measures pre-operatively, and at 6 months and 12 months post-operatively, to assess function and quality of life.
The Effect of Flexible Thoracolumbar Brace on Idiopathic Scoliosis, Prospective, Randomized, Open-label Trial
Early Onset Scoliosis (EOS) is defined as scoliosis with onset under the age of ten years, regardless of etiology. It is a complex three-dimensional deformity of the spine which can cause significant physical and psychological problems. Currently there are two basic treatment options available for EOS: non-surgical and surgical. ApiFix Ltd. has developed a novel growing rod system for surgical treatment of EOS, the MID-C system. It is indicated for patients with a scoliosis of 35 to 75 degrees Cobb angle
