Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Surgery Decision Making with Fuzzy Model

Abstract

Objective: The surgical decision in scoliosis patients exhibits variability based on angle parameters and the characteristics of patients in the adult or adolescent age group. Existing studies demonstrate that the Cobb’s angle, particularly in the range of 25-45, shapes the surgical decision depending on the measures and characteristics of the patients. This study evaluated the performance of a fuzzy logic-based decision support system in making surgical decisions
