Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to improve our understanding of uncertainty in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS), which is a chronic illness involving curvature of the spine and is typically diagnosed in late childhood or early adolescence. The timing of most AIS diagnosis and its subsequent treatment occurs at a critical point developmentally and may place strain on adolescents with AIS and their parents. This dissertation includes two studies. The first study used Cash's (2011) cognitive-behavioral perspective on body image as the framework to assess whether brace treatment had a negative

Abstract:

This study investigated the function of spinal bracing in treating Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Using bi-planar imaging (EOS), a three-dimensional assessment of how the brace achieves correction of the spinal deformity was performed utilizing the SterEOS software. Across all scans, the immediate angular correction achieved with bracing appeared modest in the coronal plane. The results suggested no significant change in axial vertebral rotation. Over sequential episodes there appeared no significant progression of deformity parameters. Bracing of scoliosis patients appeared t

Abstract:

Progression of spinal deformity in children was studied with Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to identify how gravity affects the deformity and to determine the full three-dimensional character of the deformity. The CT study showed that gravity is significant in deformity progression in some patients which has implications for clinical patient management. The world first MRI study showed that the standard clinical measure used to define the extent of the deformity is inadequate and further use of three-dimensional MRI should be considered by spinal surgeons.

Background. Il busto ortopedico fa parte delle linee guida per il trattamento della scoliosi idiopatica in soggetti adolescenti. La sua efficacia sulla riduzione della curva scoliotica è stata dimostrata più volte in letteratura, ma pochi studi si concentrano sugli effetti che questa ortesi possa avere in un’attività funzionale di tutti i giorni: la deambulazione. Limitare il movimento di alcuni distretti potrebbe influenzare negativamente il cammino ed essendo inoltre, un trattamento che può prolungarsi anche diversi anni, deve essere un aspetto su cui indagare.

Background The use of school scoliosis screening for early detection of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) in order to avoid the need of invasive surgery remains controversial.

However, before school scoliosis screening is considered worth implementing, its direct effect on the need of surgery should also be assessed as stipula

Scoliosis curves have a proven complex deformity, consisting of a three-dimensional deformity involving the coronal, sagittal and rotational planes.

Thus, the thoracic curve can be exclusively fused to allow for a more mobile lumbar spine. The objective of this review was to asses

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) surgery is the most common reason for elective pediatric orthopaedic surgery. Minimization of adverse events is an important goal. Institute of Medicine (IOM) outlined 6 facets of healthcare quality improvement within the acronym STEEEP. Two of these facets, Safety and Timeliness for AIS surgery in Canada, are examined in this thesis. METHODS: A three - part study, using clinical records at the largest Canadian pediatric hospital and CIHI national administrative data, determined i) the relationship between surgical wait times and rates of adv

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>醫學工程學研究所<br>92<br>Spinal flexibility has been used by clinicians in various medical procedures; yet the quantitative definition has not been shown in the literature. The objective of this research was to determine spinal flexibility through the investigation of its relation to other patient parameters, such as growth factors, curve pattern, curve apex and curve magnitude. Ten adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) subjects were recruited. A measuring device was designed such that the corrective force will be recorded. Spinal orthoses was fabricated according to their molds a

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis was to discuss new surgical approaches of spínal artificial intervetebral components used for AIS and giYe some ideas for further research on physiotherapeutical approaches to this. The method used was a critical review and I have used ~any journals, through the Charles University access to medical journals. I have found around a hundred and twenty articles related to this problem directly or indirectly. By comparing contents of these articles I conclude that new technologies bring to the problem new aspects and these aspects are connected with updating the physiotherape

Abstract:

Introduction. The etiology of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is largely unknown. AIS was well-documented to be associated with low bone mineral density (BMD) and abnormal bone quality. We hypothesized that bone matrix mineralization is abnormally low in AIS and that the abnormality could lead to the observed osteopenia and abnormal bone quality that might contribute to the etiopathogenesis of AIS.<br>Objectives. 1. To verify the abnormal bone mass and bone quality in AIS Vs normal matched controls 2. To study the bone matrix mineralization status, micro-architecture and mechanical prope

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to determine the different biological, psychological, and social factors that affect patient adherence in bracing treatment for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. By comparing adherent and non-adherent bracing patients, we hope to gain insight into how to improve patient adherence in bracing as a means of primary treatment and to avoid secondary and tertiary treatments such as surgery. METHODS: Of the 19 patients (15 adherent, 4 non-adherent) who were examined for this study, the majority of them completed all psychosocial surveys at one time point in
