兒童早發性脊柱側彎的治療與照護

Early Onset Scoliosis Patient Treatment and Care

摘要


Early onset scoliosis (EOS) is a complex disorder with spinal deformity noted before the age of five. The etiology of this disorder reveals that it is of multiple origins: congenital, idiopathic, syndromatic or neuromuscular. In addition to trunk deformity, resulting cardiopulmonary distress is of great concern. Conservative treatments are observation, riser cast use, exercise, and bracing; while the surgical interventions are excision, growing rod techniques, or insertion of a vertical expandable prosthesis titanium rib (VEPTR). The nursing role is characterized by improving the general health of sick kids, through cast care, brace compliance, adaptation of body image, and influencing the physical and psychological acceptance of kids and parents. A multi-medial professional team approach would provide the best care for such a complex disorder.
