REFLECT System for Curved Spine Surgery in Growing Children
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study reviews results from children who had surgery using the REFLECT system to correct severe curvature of the spine (scoliosis). It looks at whether this newer surgical approach safely corrects the curve and maintains that correction over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are still growing (bones not fully mature)
- Your spine curves between 30–65 degrees (measured on X-rays)
- Your bones are strong enough for surgical screws
- You tried wearing a back brace but it didn't work or you couldn't tolerate it
- You had surgery with the REFLECT system at least 12 months ago
- Your complete medical and X-ray records from before and after surgery are available

This study tests a new brace called RESILIENT designed to help prevent scoliosis curves from getting worse in children. You'll wear the brace and the research team will track whether it helps slow or stop curve progression.
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.
This study tests a non-surgical 3D approach to correct spine curvature in teenagers with mild to moderate scoliosis. It may help straighten the spine without surgery.
This trial tests a special growing rod system for young children with severe scoliosis. It helps straighten the spine while allowing the chest and lungs to grow properly.
This study follows kids who have a surgery called anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) for growing-related, idiopathic scoliosis. It looks at how well the curve stays corrected over time and how the spine grows, which may help improve future care decisions.
This study tests a new MRI-guided brace system for teens with mild scoliosis (curves between 10 and 25 degrees). It aims to see if this dynamic brace is more comfortable and effective than traditional braces.
