The Pediatric Spine Foundation is a registry designed to assist spine surgeons to efficiently identify and track patients with chest wall and spinal disorders.
The Pediatric Spine Foundation is a registry designed to assist spine surgeons to efficiently identify and track patients with chest wall and spinal disorders. The registry allows spine surgeons to participate in retrospective and prospective studies for specific spinal disorders.
All patients 17 and under that are being treated at Children's Hospital Colorado Orthopaedic department for a chest wall deformity, spine deformity and/or spinal disorder.
Exclusion Criteria:
Standard of Care - Registry. Must have been 11 yrs or under at initial treatment/evaluation.
Other: Standard of Care - Registry
Standard of Care - Registry
Clinical and radiographic measures for children with chest wall deformity, spine deformity and/or spinal disorder.
The registry records data from clinical and surgical visits - evaluation date, demographics, cobb angle, kyphosis, ambulatory status, ECG and ECHO measurements, lab results (HbG, Serum CO2, Albumin, Prealbumin), X-rays, pulmonary function test and O2 saturation, primary diagnosis, comorbidities, prior and current treatment, surgical info (days in ICU, blood loss, type of procedure, position of device, fusion details), and complication details. An Early Onset Scoliosis 24-Item Questionnaire is also administered each visit. Questions pertain to general health, pain/discomfort, pulmonary function, transfer, physical function, daily living, energy level, emotion, parental impact, financial impact, and satisfaction. For each category there are 1-3 questions where parents can circle one of the five answer choices that vary in severity grade. The primary outcome would be to complete numerous small retrospective cohort studies using the data collected prospectively from the registry.
Time frame: Approximately 10 years, recording each clinical and/or surgical visit the patient encounters at Children's Hospital Colorado.
