Clinical Trial Summary

Spinal deformity is common in childhood and adolescence, and can often present as scoliosis or increased thoracic kyphosis deformity with various etiologies.The diaphragm is the main respiratory muscle, and diaphragm contraction is associated with respiratory functions.Any spinal deformity, especially one that affects the thoracic spine, can affect lung function.In the planned thesis study, investigators will measure the diaphragm thickness in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients with scoliosis deformities affecting the thoracic region, whether there is any relationship between the impact in the thoracic region and the diaphragm thickness, and the three-dimensional exercise (Schroth exercise-Barcelona Schroth therapy) applied in investigators' clinic for scoliosis, before and after the treatment of the diaphragm. Investigators aimed to show whether there is any change in thickness.


Clinical Trial Description

Spinal deformity is common in childhood and adolescence, and can often present as scoliosis or increased thoracic kyphosis deformity with various etiologies. Any spinal deformity, especially one that affects the thoracic spine, can affect lung function. If left untreated, the curves may distort over time as skeletal growth accelerates. In some patients, this can lead to restrictive or obstructive lung disease and, rarely, death as a result of cor pulmonale. The alignment of the skeletal system in the chest and its harmony with the compliance of the chest wall are related to respiratory function; Thoracic kyphosis and the resulting changes in the rib cage lead to a decrease in lung capacity. The diaphragm is the main respiratory muscle, and diaphragm contraction is associated with respiratory functions. In recent years, ultrasonography (USG) has gained increasing utility for visualizing the diaphragm and assessing its function, with several advantages. In the planned thesis study, investigators will measure the diaphragm thickness in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients with scoliosis deformities affecting the thoracic region, whether there is any relationship between the impact in the thoracic region and the diaphragm thickness, and the three-dimensional exercise (Schroth exercise-Barcelona Schroth therapy) applied in investigators' clinic for scoliosis, before and after the treatment of the diaphragm. Investigators aimed to show whether there is any change in thickness. ;
