Evaluation of night-time bracing efficacy in the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review.

The current available literature does not permit us to draw conclusions about night-time braces. The low methodological quality of the studies examined makes it impossible to compare the effectiveness of the night-time braces with that of traditional TLSOs. Prospective well-designed clinical trials applying SRS inclusion and evaluation criteria are mandatory to better define the role of night-time orthosis in the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
