Study Summary
This trial studies how spine deformities affect movement and stability in patients, using motion analysis and accelerometers.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who are scheduled to have spinal deformity correction surgery involving at least a 4-level fusion with pelvic fixation, specifically under Dr. Elder or Dr. Fogelson, and diagnosed with degenerative thoracolumbar deformity.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is using motion analysis testing and triaxial accelerometers to measure the functional activity and stability of patients after they undergo spinal deformity surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves non-invasive monitoring rather than medication or surgical intervention, there are no direct side effects from the triaxial accelerometer itself.
