What this Trial Is About

Researchers are conducting a survey study to understand the factors influencing treatment decisions for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS), such as choosing observation, bracing, or surgery. The goal is to develop a shared decision-making tool to help families better understand these treatment options and improve clinical discussions about AIS care. Participants will complete surveys about their experiences and decision-making processes related to AIS treatment. This observational study does not involve experimental treatments but focuses on gathering information from patients and their families who have been treated for scoliosis. During the study, participants will complete the survey at baseline, with follow-up approximately three years later to track the number of completed surveys. The research team will analyze the collected responses to create a decision aid tool. Participation involves providing feedback through surveys without additional medical procedures or treatments.
