Questão jurídica principal
Whether the Rahmouni brace and Katharina-Schroth inpatient therapy are scientifically recognized medical measures
Decisão extraída
Yes. The court held that both treatments are broadly recognized by practitioners and researchers and therefore satisfy the scientific-recognition requirement.
Fundamentação extraída
The court relied on the investigatory record, expert evidence, and the fact that the brace is a modification of the widely recognized Chêneau brace; randomised double-blind studies were not required.
