BRAIVE IDE Trial Summary

This trial will test if the Braive™ GMS is safe and effective in treating pediatric progressive scoliosis.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and adolescents with juvenile or adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. They should have a main thoracic Cobb angle of 30-60 degrees, be skeletally immature (Sanders Score of 2-5), and not responded to conservative treatments. Participants must not have had prior chest surgery, spinal abnormalities, severe lung disease, or any condition that could interfere with the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Braive™ Growth Modulation System (Braive™ GMS) is being tested for its safety and potential benefits in treating progressive pediatric scoliosis. The study will assess how well this system can manage the curvature of the spine in young patients.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, potential risks may include reactions to implant materials such as inflammation or infection at the site of surgery, discomfort from the device itself, and general surgical risks like bleeding.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the ultimate goals of this research endeavor?

"The primary outcome of this medical study, which takes place over a 24 month period post-surgery, is to assess the difference in pre and post operative thoracic Cobb angle. Secondary objectives include measuring the alteration from baseline on Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory™ (PedsQL), Scoliosis Research Society-22 Patient Questionnaire (SRS-22) as well as shoulder imbalance; all these metrics will be assessed at multiple time points during the trial."

Answered by AI

At what locations can participants access this clinical trial?

"Nicklaus Children's Hospital in Miami, IWK Health Centre in Halifax and Ascension Texas Spine and Scoliosis in Austin are the three main sites for this trial. Additionally, 6 other medical centres are participating as well."

Answered by AI

How many participants can this research project accommodate?

"The trial, conducted by Medtronic Spinal and Biologics, needs 25 suitable participants. It will be held at Nicklaus Children's Hospital in Miami, Florida as well as IWK Health Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia."
