Impact of surgical treatment on parent-reported health related quality of life measures in early-onset scoliosis: stable but no improvement at 2 years
Spine Deformity(2022)
Abstract
The etiology of early-onset scoliosis (EOS) has been shown to significantly influence baseline parent-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL) measures as assessed by the Early Onset Scoliosis Questionnaire (EOSQ). We sought to assess the influence of distraction-based surgery and scoliosis etiology on EOSQ 2 years following surgical intervention remains unclear. A retrospective review of a multi-center prospective EOS database was performed. Children untreated with distraction-based, growth friendly instrumentation for EOS with completed baseline and 2-year post-surgical EOSQ were included. Children were subdivided by curve etiology individually and in combined cohorts (congenital/idiopathic [C/I], neuromuscular/syndromic [NMS]). EOSQ domains and compositive HRQoL score at presentation and 2-year follow-up were compared across C-EOS etiologies. Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) was defined as ≥ 20
