Kyphosis of the spinal column has been reported to increase with age. With the increased in life expectancy and a greater proportion of the elderly, it is predicted that the number of patients with spinal kyphosis will also increase in the future. Physiotherapy is a one of the Conservative treatments for spinal kyphosis. But efficacy of physiotherapy for spinal kyphosis is not clear. The purpose of this systematic review is to examine the benefits and harms of physiotherapy for elderly patients with spinal kyphosis. We used a systematic review protocol template (dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.biqrkdv6). We followed the Preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P, 2015) for preparing this protocol.
