Summary

Osteoporotic vertebral fractures often lead to postural changes, chronic spinal pain conditions and limited functionality. Orthoses that straighten the spine have been shown in studies to have a positive effect on pain, posture and the functional state of patients with a fresh vertebral fracture.

The planned study investigates the effect of the orthosis "Spinomed active" in patients aged ≥ 65 years with at least one non-acute osteoporotic vertebral fracture (at least 3 months ago) and chronic back pain.
