Summary
This study tests a smartphone app called DinSkoliose, designed to help adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis stick to their treatment plan. The app includes features like reminders for brace wear and exercises, symptom tracking, and educational content. Thirty teens will use the app for 12 weeks alongside their usual care, and researchers will measure changes in self-management, motivation, and treatment adherence through questionnaires and interviews.
