Filter by:This study is an opportunity to provide continued reasonable assurance of the safety and probable benefit of The Tether HUD. The study will collect long term safety and efficacy information from patients who have had their idiopathic scoliosis treated via anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) with The Tether.
Comparison of casting and bracing for the treatment of idiopathic early onset scoliosis
The primary objective of the study is to monitor the effectiveness of a minimal invasive non-fusion double rod bipolar posterior spinal implant (Nemost growing domino) to correct the scoliotic curve in growing patients suffering from progressive adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) who have failed conservative treatment.
Alteration of evoked potentials is described in cases with using inhalation anaesthetics. Muscle relaxants are contraindicated in case of motor evoked potentials except for initial dose for intubation of the patient. Dominant anaesthetic method for procedures with measuring motor evoked potentials is total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA). Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring is one of the possible options for comprehensive monitoring of the depth of general anaesthesia. It helps to optimize the management of anaesthesia, so it reduces the risk of perioperative awakenings due to shallow anaesthesia or inadequate depth of anaesthesia associated with the risk of cognitive dysfunction, as well as investigators expect worse interpretation of motor evoked potentials. At the same time, it shortens the time to wake up from general anaesthesia after hours-long surgery. BIS monitoring allows optimizing the depth of anaesthesia and leads to improve quality and interpretation of motor evoked potentials. The depth of TIVA managed by BIS affects the reproducibility of motor evoked potentials.
The purpose of this study is to study the effectiveness of in-brace 3D scoliosis correction by comparing Rigo Chêneau orthoses (RCO) with conventional Traditional Boston-style thoracolumbosacral orthoses (TLSO) in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) patients, following Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) and The International Scientific Society on Scoliosis Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Treatment (SOSORT) recommendations for non-operative AIS management and research studies. This group of patients that reach the threshold for bracing have an intrinsic higher risk for curve progression. Hence, the proposed study will provide novel and high quality evidence to improve the efficacy of bracing in the non-operative treatment of AIS. This will contribute significantly to the betterment of public health by reducing the number of patients requiring surgical intervention. Ultimately, new evidence-based clinical practice guidelines on the most effective type of scoliosis braces will benefit children diagnosed with AIS worldwide.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of scoliosis-specific exercises in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients, who had surgical indication, on functional capacity, cosmetic deformity perception, quality of life in postoperative period.
Scoliosis is a structural, tridimensional deformity of the spine. Characterized by lateral curvature and rotation of the vertebrae with functional limitations and cosmetic problems, idiopathic scoliosis, which accounts for 75% to 80% of all scoliosis, is the most common of all types. (1, 2) Surgical treatment is an effective way to correct severe spine deformity when the deformity progressively worsens and cannot be positively corrected by brace treatment. Spinal correction surgery is one of the most invasive surgical procedures and usually results in moderate to severe levels of postoperative pain. (3) Severe pain may induce implant complications such as construct dislodgement, broken instrumentation, and implant loosening which requires additional revision procedures These conditions adversely affect postoperative outcomes.(4) In the past several years, pain has become an important indicator for evaluating indicators of outcome and quality of life after surgery. Effective analgesia after surgery could improve patients' prognosis.(5) The retrolaminar block is a recently described ultrasound-guided technique in which local anesthetics is injected into the fascial plane between the posterior surface of the thoracic lamina and the overlying transverso-spinalis muscles. (2) The available evidence indicates that retrolaminar block is effective in reducing opioid requirements and improving the pain experience in a wide range of clinical settings. They are best employed as part of multimodal analgesia with other systemic analgesics

The ApiFix MID-C System is a unidirectional expandable rod, designed to be connected unilaterally to the spine via 2 anchor points on the concave side of a scoliotic deformity above and below the apex of the major curvature to treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The MID-C System is designed to act as an internal brace. Patients implanted with the device in the US within 2 years of FDA's approval of H17001 should be enrolled in the study. A minimum number of 200 patients will be enrolled in this study.
Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients, 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.
