An observational study in Idiopathic Scoliosis, sponsored by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven. Withdrawn at 1 site in Belgium. Open to participants aged 5 Years to 18 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2021-03-02.
Sponsored by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven · Observational
The goal of the study is to analyze the influence of bracing on sagittal balance in scoliosis. In special we want to observe if there is a difference between two types of TLSO-brace, namely boston and cheneau.
Retrospective analyses of Full Spine X-rays of patients who underwent bracing-therapy in the context of scoliosis.
Different spinopelvic parameters will be analyzed: pelvic incidence, pelvic tilt, sacral slope, lumbar lordosis, spinopelvic angle, spinosacral angle, thoracal kyphosis.
Four different X-rays will be reviewed for these parameters:
It concerns patients with idiopathic scoliosis (exclusion of congenital scoliosis, neuromuscular scoliosis and associated spondylolisthesis).
Goal of the study is to check if treatment with TLSO-brace has a delordosing effect on sagittal balance (decrease of lumbar lordosis).
The zero-hypothesis: TLSO causes no decrease in lumbar lordosis.
Secondary goal is to compare the effect of the BOSTON TSLO-brace and otherwise the CHENEAU TLSO-brace on spinopelvic parameters and lumbar lordosis in special.
