Description
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis affects up to three percent of the population. For decades, the only treatment has been a ridged plastic brace whose main goal was to prevent the progression of the curve, not to correct it. Green Sun Medical is developing a tech enabled spinal brace that applies reduction forces dynamically, both allowing the patient to move and generate the constant corrective forces necessary to reverse deformity. This is accomplished through Tissue Remodeling the same way orthodontic braces work on teeth. The Green Sun Medical iPad application will give physicians real time feedback of the pressure placed on a patient, while also gathering long term outcome information.
