Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) is sponsoring a pilot study in which researchers are exploring respiratory function and its relation to quality of life, type of OI, presence of scoliosis/chest wall deformity, and other factors such as age or co-existing co-morbidities.

Individuals 15 years of age or older who have a diagnosis of OI are eligible for this single-visit research study, which aims to enroll 50 participants.
