Study Summary
Scoliosis bracing is an effective treatment method for idiopathic scoliosis, but only if worn consistently for many hours a day. Unsurprisingly, brace discomfort is a significant deterrent against treatment adherence. For decades, custom braces for idiopathic scoliosis have been fabricated using one of three materials - copolymer, polypropylene, or polyethylene. The application of the biomechanical principles behind bracing have improved over the years, but the materials have not. The investigators' goal is to expand fabrication options by testing a 3D-printed scoliosis brace with variable flexibility. The aim is to improve patients' perceived brace comfort. After optimizing the brace design, the investigators will collect patient feedback about the design from currently braced participants. These participants understand what a standard brace feels like and will provide impactful feedback.
