dc.description.abstractBracing is an effective non-operative treatment, in patients with adolescent idio- pathic scoliosis (AIS). The relationship between patients’ quality of life (QOL) and brace wear adherence has been reported. This study aims to determine brace wear adherence for AIS patients with novel ques- tionnaire. A nested case-control study was conducted, included patient age 10-18 years, coronal Cobb angle 20-50°, and Risser grade 0-3. Correlation between patients’ QOL and the average hours of daily brace-wear were determined. Patients were divided into 3 groups based on brace wear adherence and were compared. QOL domains associated with the incompleteness of brace-wearing were determined by Cox proportional-hazards regression. Mean age of patients was 13.3 years (range 11-17.3 years) with initial Cobb angle of 33.5° (range 20-48°). There were significant neg- ative correlations between total QOL scores and brace wearing time. Increased social domain scores was significantly associated with less brace wearing time (HR 1.5, 95% CI 1.12-2.04). Significant correlations between patients’ QOL and the average hours per day of brace wear. Poor social QOL have a significant impact on brace wear adherence.en_US
