Welcome To SpineCor Research

The SpineCor Brace Is the first and only truly dynamic brace, which provides a progressive correction of Idiopathic Scoliosis from 15º Cobb angle and above. This Flexible Brace also Preserves normal body movement and growth and allows normal activities of daily living. It is worn comfortably and easily under clothing. Increases patient's treatment acceptance leading to better compliance. For more information please go to the United States Top Leading Spinecor Providers at ScoliosisSpecialists.com .

Even though the effectiveness of the SpineCor brace is accepted world wide, we understand the necessity of collecting data from journals, doctors and independent treatment centers to support the efficiency of the Dynamic SpineCor brace.

For this reason ScoliosisSpecialists.com have created this website, collecting results from independent SpineCor centers around the world, Clinical Journals and Published Journals; in order to reinforce those obtained at Sainte-Justine Hospital, upon which the effectiveness of the SpineCor brace is based.

The shape of the torso in patients with idiopathic scoliosis is considered to reflect the shape of the vertebral column, however the direct correlation between parameters describing clinical deformity and those characterizing radiological curvature was reported to be weak. It is not clear if the management proposed for scoliosis (physiotherapy, brace, surgery) affects equally the shape of the axial skeleton and the surface of the body. The aim of the study was to compare clinical deformity of idiopathic scoliosis girls being under brace treatment for radiological curves of 25 to 40 degrees and non treated scoliotic girls matched for age and Cobb angle.

  ›› The experience of brace treatment in children/adolescents with scoliosis
PDF

Idiopathic scoliosis is a chronic illness with several different braces used for its treatment.Brace treatment during childhood/adolescence can produce stress. There are studies supporting that it can decrease body-image perception while other studies support that it has no such effect. The purpose of this study was to explore the experience of brace treatment in children/adolescents with scoliosis. The aim was to investigate which feelings are created by the bracing experience in children/adolescents with scoliosis and what are the children/adolescents' with scoliosis opinions of the support provided to them by health-care professionals and by their families.

  ›› Discrepancy in clinical versus radiological parameters describing deformity due to brace treatment for moderate idiopathic scoliosis
PDF

The shape of the torso in patients with idiopathic scoliosis is considered to reflect the shape of the vertebral column, however the direct correlation between parameters describing clinical deformity and those characterizing radiological curvature was reported to be weak. It is not clear if the management proposed for scoliosis (physiotherapy, brace, surgery) affects equally the shape of the axial skeleton and the surface of the body. The aim of the study was to compare clinical deformity of (1) idiopathic scoliosis girls being under brace treatment for radiological curves of 25 to 40 degrees and (2) non treated scoliotic girls matched for age and Cobb angle.

  ›› Evaluation of segmental postural characteristics during quiet standing in control and Idiopathic Scoliosis patients
PDF

The complex skeletal deformations that accompany Idioapthic Scoliosis pose a challenge to the clinician to noninvasively discriminate Idiopathic Scoliosis patients from children with no pathology. Therefore, the focus of this study is to non-invasively evaluate the position and amplitude of displacement of the pelvis, shoulders and thorax during quiet standing of Idiopathic Scoliosis patients and control subjects.
