Description

The primary objective of this study is to validate the reproducibility of device output in multiple users in a clinical setting. Device output will be predicted probability of major curve magnitude (i.e., Cobb angle) greater than or equal to 20 degrees with 95% confidence interval. We will test whether users obtain similar device output when measuring the same participant (at least 2 scans required for analysis). After excluding bad quality scans, the measurements obtained by these different users (at least 2 users after excluding bad scans) on each study participant will then be compared to determine if they are congruent (having overlapping confidence intervals) or different. The percentage of participants for which users generated congruent predicted probabilities will be reported.

The NSite Scoliosis Assessment App is intended as a clinical decision support tool and requires interpretation by the healthcare professional. It is intended for use for children and adolescent patients 10 to 18 years old. It is for use by prescription only. The NSite Scoliosis Assessment App provides a calculated Asymmetry Index for patients with or at risk for scoliosis, which will yield an output of percentage risk of major curve magnitude (i.e., Cobb angle) greater than 20 degrees, with 95% confidence intervals.
