| Abstract | Background: Brace treatment is the most effective tool for avoiding curve progression in moderate adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and high adherence is required to achieve therapeutic success. Despite this, the compliance often is impaired by the concern about the psychological well-being of adolescents. Objective: This 36-month follow-up study investigated if the patients most adherent to brace treatment could report a stronger impairment in the quality of life and body image. Methods: 64 adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis responded to the Scoliosis Research Society-22 revised Patient Questionnaire at 12, 24, and 36 months after prescription of a TLSO rigid brace. Retrospectively, participants who wore a brace for more than 75% of the prescribed time were assigned to the good-compliance group (GC); the others formed the poor-compliance group (PC). Results: At 12 months the GC group showed higher scores in treatment satisfaction and at 36 months they did not differ from the PC group in the overall SRS-22r score. Moreover, they achieved a statistically significant improvement in the scoliosis severity, although they showed lower scores in the self-image domain. Conclusion: In our patient's cohort, increased brace adherence does not compromise QoL and provides better treatment outcomes. However, more attention is needed to maintain good self-perception. |
