Effects of the "Spinomed Active" Orthosis on Chronic Back Pain in Women With Osteoporotic Vertebral Bone Fracture and Hyperkyphosis
Abstract
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures often lead to postural changes, chronic spinal pain conditions and limited functionality. Orthoses that straighten the spine have been shown in studies to have a positive effect on pain, posture and the functional state of patients with a fresh vertebral fracture.
The planned study investigates the effect of the orthosis "Spinomed active" in patients aged ≥ 65 years with at least one non-acute osteoporotic vertebral fracture (at least 3 months ago) and chronic back pain.
Conditions: Osteopenia, Kyphosis.
Primary outcome: Back pain.
Enrollment: 80 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 80 participants or records.
