IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSIS

This study tested a new standing therapy device with a biofeedback mechanism in 32 children and adolescents aged 8-16 with idiopathic scoliosis. Participants used the device or received other therapies twice a week for six months. The main goal was to see if the device could redu…

This study compared two exercise programs—SEAS and BSPTS—for 30 teens with mild scoliosis (curves under 30 degrees). The goal was to see which approach better stops the curve from getting worse and improves posture and quality of life. Both methods use special exercises to streng…

This study tested two pain relief methods after scoliosis surgery: a nerve block called MTP and morphine injected into the spine. Forty adults having scoliosis surgery took part. The goal was to see which method controls pain better in the first 24 hours after surgery.

This study looked at whether hip X-rays can help doctors measure how much growing a teenager with scoliosis has left. Researchers examined 70 patients and graded the closure of the growth plate in the hip bone. The goal was to see if this method is reliable and easy to use in cli…

This study looked at whether teens with idiopathic scoliosis (a spine curve) have different pelvic floor muscle activity compared to healthy teens. Researchers measured muscle activation using a special device and also checked quality of life. The goal was to better understand ho…

This study looked at whether a 3D body scanner (surface topography) can measure scoliosis curves as accurately as standard X-rays in children aged 10-13. The goal is to reduce the need for repeated X-rays, which expose young patients to radiation. Researchers compared the two met…
