Multicenter Study Protocol: Pediatric Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) Preference Study of Motion Sparing Spinal Growth Modulation versus Spinal Fusion – Decision Aid Construction

Overview

Información sobre este estudio

The purpose of this study is to capture and analyze video recordings of encounters between patients, families, and their surgeons as they discuss treatment options for scoliosis. Analysis of the recordings will be used to develop a shared decision-making tool.

This research effort will gather and analyze video footage to gain a more personal aspect of the decision-making process. As the patient and their families are being introduced to the options for surgical treatment there is an instinctual reaction to certain scenarios that may occur from both fusion and non -fusion surgical treatments. These verbal and non-verbal cues will then be analyzed by a group of specialists trained in developing decision aid tools for healthcare support.

The data will be used to develop a decision aid tool that will help support patients and clinicians to think, talk and feel through what is the best treatment plan for each patient as they are faced with the surgical options available.
