Active clinical trials for "Scoliosis"

The aim of this study is to compare the outcomes after scoliosis surgery before and after ERAS (enhanced recovery after surgery) program inplementation in children and teenager.

Surgical Guide for Thoracic Pedicle Screw Instrumentation in Scoliosis Correction Surgery

The purpose of this study was to investigate the degree of agreement between the ultrasound-measured depth (in the transverse median and paramedian sagittal oblique plane) and the actual depth to the epidural space in pediatric patients with scoliosis. investigate the quality of ultrasound view for detecting ligamentum flavum and dura mater.

The study is quantifying how your back has been corrected using Medicrea's hardware through imaging taken before, during, and after your surgery. Visits include the pre-operative visit, 1 and 2 year follow up visits. Participation includes answering questions and filling out questionnaires. There are no immediate benefits to you by joining this study, but could potentially help define better techniques for the future spine surgeries. The risks involved in this study are minimal and there are no alternatives to this study.

The primary objective is to assess the capability of the device as measured by its consistency, its accuracy, and feedback from surgical staff over the study period.

A multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, single-arm observational study evaluating the Providence nighttime bracing system in patients diagnosed with adolescence idiopathic scoliosis.

The population of the US is aging. They remain more active and place greater demands on their musculoskeletal system. A key problem is that pain and disability of age related spinal disorders will increase. Problems such as Degenerative Lumbar Spondylolisthesis, Degenerative Disk Disease, Spinal Stenosis and Degenerative Scoliosis are age related problems that are treated with spinal fusion when non-operative treatment fails. Traditional open surgery poses significant risk for patients in this age group. The use of minimally invasive spinal surgery techniques provides an opportunity to treat these patients with less morbidity than traditional open surgery.

Observational case-control study to see if the Margin of Stability and Dynamic Postural Stability (measured using a motion capture gait laboratory and wearable device, respectively) are different in children with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis and matched controls. Participants will walk across level ground and on a treadmill once for data collection and no follow-up is required.

Thoracic hypocyphosis and greater lumbar lordosis after correction of idiopathic scoliosis in adolescents and young adults may adversely affect overall sagittal alignment and increase the risk of proximal junctional kyphosis. The objective of this study is to analyze surgical corrections and maintenance of correction over time using modern posterior instrumentation strategies by comparing technical developments.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the reliability and validity of a new device similar to a scoliometer. The intended name of the device will be Scolioscope
