ROTATIONAL EFFECT OF THE 3D BRACE IN THE TREATMENT OF ADOLESCENT IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSIS

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the axial correction capacity of the 3D brace in treating Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). Methods: A retrospective study was carried out with 61 patients with AIS who obtained the 3D brace, between 2019 and 2022, in a laboratory that manufactures orthotics an...

description ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the axial correction capacity of the 3D brace in treating Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). Methods: A retrospective study was carried out with 61 patients with AIS who obtained the 3D brace, between 2019 and 2022, in a laboratory that manufactures orthotics and orthopedic prostheses. These individuals underwent independent analysis of radiographic parameters by evaluating vertebral rotation using the Nash and Moe classification. The analyzed radiographs were taken in orthostasis before and after treatment with the 3D vest. Patients were divided into groups I and II-IV according to the Nash and Moe radiographic classification. Corrective capacity was estimated by assessing the degree of vertebral rotation before and after treatment. Results: Of the 61 patients evaluated, 36 (59%) had Nash and Moe grade I, and 25 patients grade II-IV before treatment. After treatment, 13 (21%) had grade II-IV, and 48 had grade I. Of the patients categorized as II-IV, 64% had improvement in the rotational profile. None clinical studies or radiographic parameter was associated with a change in rotational profile other than brace use (p=0.012). Conclusion: In the studied sample, treatment with the 3D vest promoted a change in vertebral rotation according to the Nash and Moe classification. The majority showed improvement in this parameter of evaluation of treatment of AIS. Level of Evidence III; Retrospective Study.
