Follow up visits
will be very similar to the initial visit. We will
perform postural and clinical exams in and out of the brace to
assess the improvement in posture, curve angle with the
scoliometer and on about every other visit a full spine x-ray
following brace adjustment. What we should see in
these follow ups is the scoliosis is stabilizing in severe
cases and correcting in moderate cases. Correction is a
step-by-step slow process, but in the long run this is what
provides for the maintenance of the
correction out of the brace.
