Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events Primary · up to 2 years

Intra-operative and post-intervention medical events or signs and symptoms of complications arising after the start of study intervention will be captured. The event description, date of onset, end date, severity, and outcome will be documented. The frequencies, type, body system, severity, and relationship to the study intervention will also be summarized. A distinction will be made between those events which are "device-related" and "non device-related".

Comparison of Pre-Operative and Post-Operative Cobb Angle Secondary · up to 2 years

The exploratory therapeutic endpoint used for feasibility will be change in post-operative Cobb angle compared to pre-operative Cobb angle, measured on coronal radiograph of the spine.

Comparison of Pre-Operative and Post-Operative SRS 30 Scores Secondary · up to 2 years

The Scoliosis Research Society 30 (SRS-30) questionnaire will be administered at pre-operative and post-operative time points. This questionnaire measures health-related quality of life outcomes. It consists of 30 questions divided into five domains: Function/Activity (5 questions), Pain (5 questions), Self-image/Appearance (5 questions), Mental Health (5 questions), and Satisfaction with management (2 questions). The remaining 8 questions are a combination of different domains. Each question is scored on a 5-point scale (1 = worst, 5 = best). To score each domain, sum the scores of the questi

Adverse events — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov

Time frame: Adverse event data was collected up to 2 years after the date of surgical implant for each subject. Additionally, the majority of the subjects enrolled in this study have also enrolled in an observational long-term follow up study.. Reporting threshold: 0%. Adverse-event reports describe events observed during the trial — not all are caused by the drug.
