Balance test could predict worsening scoliosis in teens
NCT ID NCT02862392
Summary
This study aimed to find a better way to predict which cases of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) will progress and get worse. Researchers tested 95 girls, aged 11-14, with mild scoliosis using a special balance platform (posturography) along with standard exams. The goal was to see if balance control problems could serve as an early warning sign, helping doctors decide if a patient needs more intensive therapy like physical therapy or a brace.
