Shared decision support for moderate scoliosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests a shared decision-making approach to help people with scoliosis make treatment choices together with their care team. It may help ensure you understand options and feel more confident about your plan.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be older than 13 years
- Have a scoliosis curve between 40° and 65°
- Have a Risser score greater than 2 (a measure of how much growth is left)
- Be able to walk (the scoliosis must not prevent walking)
- Do not have a Risser score of 0 or 1

This study follows adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis to see how well a new predictive model estimates whether the spinal curve will get worse over time. It may help doctors plan monitoring and treatment more accurately for young people with scoliosis.
This study uses a survey to help doctors decide on the best treatment for people who have already been treated for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. It may help improve how treatment choices are made in the future.
This study tests a device called the REFLECT Scoliosis System, meant to treat growing teens with progressive idiopathic scoliosis that hasn't improved with bracing. It may help correct the curve and allow you to follow a normal recovery plan after surgery.
Researchers are developing a decision support tool to help parents and doctors make decisions about surgery for children with neuromuscular scoliosis. The tool aims to provide clear information and support during the consultation.
This study looks at how 3D measurements and biomechanical (how the spine moves/loads) information can help guide decisions for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery. It may help your team plan treatment more accurately when you’re scheduled for tethering or selective fusion.
This study tests a personalized health management plan for teens with mild to moderate scoliosis (spine curve less than 45 degrees). It aims to help prevent the curve from getting worse and improve treatment through a special online platform.
