Official title
Pilot Trial Green Sun Medical Dynamic Brace
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The Green Sun Medical Dynamic Brace (GSM) brace was developed as an alternative to rigid thoracolumbosacral orthoses (TLSOs, braces) commonly used to prevent continued curve progression in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). The brace applies corrective forces to the muscular and bony structures of the spine while preserving range of motion (ROM). The innovative design of this brace should provide an equivalent degree of correction of the scoliotic curvature as a rigid TLSO, with increased acceptability to the patient via improved comfort and spinal/chest wall mobility. Increased acceptability promotes increased adherence to treatment. This is a pilot study to collect preliminary short-term data concerning the safety and performance of the GSM brace in a sample of subjects with AIS who are currently being treated with a TLSO. The study will use clinical exams, x-rays, monitoring equipment, and questionnaires to primarily assess safety and performance. Secondary endpoints include spinal ROM and lung vital capacity assessment, as well as data validation. The study involves 3 visits, a performance check phone call, and 4 follow up calls over a four month span. This is a pilot study and no formal hypothesis testing will be done. Descriptive statistics of selected variables will be calculated.
