Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, single-arm observational study evaluating the Providence nighttime bracing system in patients diagnosed with adolescence idiopathic scoliosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is designed as a multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, single arm observational study. A temperature probe and data logger will be attached to the Providence brace to monitor patient compliance wear time. Subjects will be blinded to temperature sensor readings to maximize objectivity of brace wear.
