Description

ABSTRACT A population of 283,439 adolescents in grades 5-9 of Alabama's public schools was screened for scoliosis and other spinal curvatures. Parents of children who screened positive were notified to seek a second screening from a physician of their choice. Those who were diagnosed with scoliosis were subsequently monitored for various periods of time. Adolescents with curve progression were treated by bracing or by surgery. Data pertaining to the prevalence and treatment of this spinal disorder in Alabama is presented and analyzed.
