No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Bracing is an accepted standard therapy for idiopathic scoliosis at Cobb angle ranges between 25° and 45°. However, it is unclear, if a specifically tailored regimen of daytime and nighttime braces (=double brace) yields superior results compared to the standard treatment (single brace for day and night). These two treatment regimens were investigated in the study.
