New implant aims to straighten Kids' spines without fusion
NCT ID NCT04929678
Summary
This study tested a new spinal implant system called Braive™ for children and teens with progressive scoliosis. The goal was to see if the device could safely control the spinal curve and allow for continued growth, potentially avoiding more invasive fusion surgery. Researchers followed 10 young patients for up to 24 months to check for safety issues and measure changes in their spinal curvature and quality of life.
