Spinal deformities negatively affect social acceptance, physical and mental wellbeing in children and adolescents. The direct costs of spinal deformity surgery are approximately $30 million per year in Australia, yet poor treatment outcomes due to post-operative complications incur a much higher cost as patients with persistent pain and disability face a lifetime of dependency and reduced ability to work. The patient-specific biomechanical modelling techniques developed in this project will reduce complications and improve correction for Australian children who undergo spinal deformity surgery. Better treatment outcomes will ensure quality of life, health and productivity for spinal deformity patients throughout their entire lives.

脊柱畸形对儿童和青少年的社会接受度、身心健康产生负面影响。在澳大利亚，脊柱畸形手术的直接费用每年约为3000万澳元，但由于术后并发症导致的治疗效果不佳，导致费用更高，因为患有持续疼痛和残疾的患者面临终身依赖和工作能力下降。本项目开发的患者特定生物力学建模技术将减少并发症，并改善接受脊柱畸形手术的澳大利亚儿童的矫正。更好的治疗结果将确保脊柱畸形患者一生的生活质量、健康和生产力。
