In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study examines which factors influence quality of life in adults with a spinal deformity. It looks at imaging findings together with pain, daily functioning, psychosocial factors, and frailty to support more person-centred care. A total of 320 adults will participate in three groups: conservative treatment, first corrective surgery, or reoperation. All care follows standard practice; no experimental treatments are added. Participants complete questionnaires, and routine FASD tests and existing EOS/X-ray images may be used. Follow-up lasts up to 2 years, with scheduled assessments depending on whether treatment is surgical or conservative.
