Importance of achieving Scoliosis Research Society–22r minimal clinically important difference for improving patient satisfaction after adult spinal deformity surgery
Abstract:OBJECTIVE
Achievement of minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) in the Scoliosis Research Society–22r (SRS-22r) subdomains represents surgical efficacy. However, whether achievements of MCIDs in SRS-22r domains are associated with long-term satisfaction in patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD) is unclear. This study aimed to elucidate factors affecting patient satisfaction after thoracopelvic corrective fusion surgery in patients with ASD.
METHODS
Data obtained in 187 patients with ASD who und… Show more
