Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Does a Pre-operative Exercise Program Improve Post-operative Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Spinal Fusion Surgery for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis?
A study found that in 1744 patients undergoing fusion surgery for adolescent Idiopathic scoliosis, 12% had back pain remaining after recovering from surgery. Rehabilitation prior to spine surgery or prehabilitation (prehab), has been shown to reduce costs and improve functional outcomes in patients who have had total hip or total knee arthroplasties. There is a lack of literature looking at prehab in the context of spine surgeries. The purpose of this study is to see if prehab can improve patient outcomes such as decreased pain, decreased length of stay in the hospital, and improved functional outcomes in patients undergoing fusion surgery for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: - Included patients will have a diagnosis of AIS (ages 11-18). They will have a curve angle requiring surgery and be on the waitlist for surgery. Exclusion Criteria: - Patients will be excluded if they are currently enrolled in a physiotherapy designed exercise program prior to being enrolled in the study. - They will be excluded if they have additional medical issues, limiting their ability to participate fully in the exercise program. - Individuals with any cognitive disability that affects their ability to complete the questionnaires or follow instructions for the exercise program will also be excluded. |

Primary | Primary Outcome | The primary analysis for the primary outcome length of stay is to determine if the prehab program reduces the average length of stay. It will follow the intention to treat approach, which will include all randomized participants retained in the group to which they are allocated. A complete analysis will be conducted to compare the outcomes between the two arms, utilizing the Student's t test or Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test, as appropriate for the distribution of the data. If more than 10% of randomized participants have missing length of stay outcomes, the missing data will be imputed using the Last Observation Carried Forward approach, as a sensitivity analysis. | 2 years | |
Secondary | Pain Outcome | The pain outcomes will be measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS); a scale ranging from 0 - 10, where 0 indicates no pain, and 10 indicates extreme pain. | 2 years | |
Secondary | Functional Outcome | The functional outcomes will be measured using the Scoliosis Research Society 22-item questionnaire (SRS-22). In this questionnaire, responses correspond to numbers 1 - 5, where 1 is the worst possible outcome and 5 is the best possible outcome. There will be a total SRS-22 score (average of all the scores) and five sub scores. The sub scores will be divided into five groups: function, pain, self-image, mental health, and satisfaction with management. Answers to questions relating to these categories will be averaged for each sub score. | 2 years |
