METHOD FOR DETERMINATION OF PECTORAL KYPHOSIS SIZE AND FOR MONITORING OF SPINE KYPHOTIC DEFORMATION IN DYNAMICS

摘要

A method for determination of pectoral kyphosis size and for monitoring of spine kyphotic deformation in a dynamics comprises the performing of the anthropometric measurings of conditional height of kyphosis and length of pectoral department of spine. A sexagesimal value of the kyphotic deformation angle is additionally determined in a patient by the results of measurings by the special a table, this value is compared with an antecedent value and at the diminishing of deformation angle the result of treatment is assessed as the improvement, in default of changes - as stability of process, and at the increase of deformation angle - as progress of disease.
