To compare the treatment outcomes of the new Cheneau brace with those of the conventional underarm brace in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Safety,Efficacy
The proportion of patients achieving an improvement of 6 degrees or more in the Cobb angle at the end of brace treatment in each treatment group.
The proportion of patients whose Cobb angle progression was limited to 5 degrees or less at the end of brace treatment.
Factors associated with favorable brace treatment outcomes.
Differences in SRS-22 and BSSQ-Brace scores between the two treatment groups.
Differences in brace compliance between the two treatment groups.
Differences in the incidence of brace-related complications between the two treatment groups.

Treatment
| Device,equipment |
Patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis who are eligible for brace treatment will be randomly assigned to either a conventional underarm thoracolumbosacral orthosis or a Cheneau brace, which is widely used in Europe and North America, to compare the safety and efficacy of the two braces.
A button-shaped temperature sensor will be attached to each brace to objectively monitor brace compliance.

Male and Female
1. Patients aged 10 to 16 years at the time of informed consent.
2. Outpatients diagnosed with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).
3. Patients who meet the indications for brace treatment, defined as a Risser grade of 4 or less, a Cobb angle of 25 degrees or greater (or 20 degrees or greater in premenarchal patients), and less than 2 years since menarche for postmenarchal patients.
4. Patients who are capable of providing informed consent and are able to provide written informed consent voluntarily. For patients younger than 18 years of age, written informed consent must also be obtained from a legally authorized representative.
5. Patients who, in the judgment of the principal investigator or sub-investigator, are considered suitable for participation in this study and for the evaluation of its efficacy and safety after consideration of the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
1. Patients with a Cobb angle of 40 degrees or greater.
2. Patients who do not provide written informed consent to participate in this randomized controlled trial.
3. Patients who have psychiatric disorders or lack the capacity to provide informed consent.
4. Patients who, in the judgment of the principal investigator, are considered unsuitable for participation in this study.
