Effects of Lateral Trunk Support on Spinal Alignment in Spinal Cord Injured Persons

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2002
The effects of lateral trunk supports (LTS) in special seating on the spinal alignment of 17 spinal cord injured (SCI) subjects with scoliosis were studied using bi-planar radiographs. The LTS improved significantly the functional scoliotic spinal alignment in the frontal and sagittal planes regardless of the severity of scoliosis.
