Critical review on non-operative management of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
WONG MS; LIU WC
PROSTHET ORTHOT INT , 2003, vol. 27, n° 3, p. 242-253 Doc n°: 110936 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : CB222 - SCOLIOSE IDIOPATHIQUE There are a number of different non-operative interventions which aim to control moderate adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) from progression. Clinicians may find difficulties in the selection of appropriate interventions for AIS. A comprehensive literature review was carried out to study all contemporary non-operative interventions, it was noted that rigid spinal orthoses apparently give more curve control; however, it would compromise the patient's quality of life via those inevitable factors--physical constraint, poor acceptance and psychological disturbance. There is a trend to develop more effective, acceptable and user-friendly interventions. Under such an aspiration, the theories and clinical evidence of different interventions should be developed along the clinical pathway of early intervention with reliable indicators/predictors, patient's active participation, dynamic control mechanism, holistic psychological and psychosocial considerations, and effective and long-lasting outcome.
