Rigid structural spine scoliosis of a child and even non progressive congenital scoliosis (e.g. isolated hemivertebra) can be treated by hypercorrective brace in full day regime. The article shows the new type of corrective brace with adjustable force effect. The brace consists of 3 stiff parts connected by joints and telescopes. The parts of brace are made from plastic according to plaster form of child trunk. The joints allow only mutual turning brace parts at frontal plane. The special telescopes were developed which operated with prescribed forces, it means the brace and trunk parts are mutually turned at prescribed moments. The article shows the algorithm for calculation of spine stress state, and spine curve correction for given brace with adjusted telescope forces. The second algorithm calculates the telescope forces for demanded spine curve correction. The computer program can be used for computer aid design of brace forces. The force effect of the new type of brace is demonstrated on a 14 months old boy with congenital scoliosis of lumbar spine (hemivertebra L1 and L3 on the right side). Curvature measured according to Coob was changed after application of this brace from 47.5(o) to 32.0(o). |
