Neuromuscular scoliosis (SNM) are deformities related to the impairment of normal function of the central nervous system (CNS) and/or peripheral nervous system (PNS) resulting in alterations to the of the functional unit represented by the integrated motor sequence (SIM). At the level of the spine, dysfunction of the SIM results in altered dynamic support of the spine. This results in a control of the trunk that is not harmonious due to the lack of effective mechanisms of muscle compensation. In particular, a greater degree of pelvic tilt with respect to the ground plane, with an increase in the degree of the so-called pelvic obliquity (OP), a fundamental parameter in walking and maintaining the seated posture. Spinal deformity causes severe alterations of the rib cage resulting in respiratory failure that often requires ventilatory supports and is associated with frequent airway infections, including pneumonias, often fatal. SNMs also express other comorbidities: cardiac (heart failure), neurological (epilepsy), nutritional that necessitate careful management multidisciplinary and especially anesthesiological evaluation for the peri-operative management. The surgical treatment of SNM constitutes a topic that is still debated due to both the bio-mechanical peculiarities of SNM and the clinical features, particularly comorbidities, that characterize this patient population. Compared with idiopathic scoliosis surgery, in SNM there is a higher rate of complications. To date, most of the complications are respiratory in nature (23%), followed by complications mechanical of the implanted surgical instrumentation (13%), and surgical site infections (11%). Furthermore, there is evidence that SNM surgery correlates with increased blood loss intraoperative. To date, it is recognized in the literature that the safest and most effective surgical treatment for SNMs is arthrodesis posterior instrumented with pedicle screws extended to the pelvis. In the years, mini-invasive surgical techniques have become increasingly prominent. invasive with the goal of reducing operative time, blood loss and complications themselves.
This study aims to investigate the effects of conditioning with open-label placebos on standard postoperative treatment for patients undergoing surgery for idiopathic scoliosis in a randomized controlled, 6-week trial with 64 AIS patients randomly assigned to one of two arms: Open-label Placebo (COLP) + treatment as usual TAU / TAU control. The study involves collecting data from your child's medical record. At each regular clinic visit, the patient clinical data will be collected by the research coordinator. Surveys will be collected including:• PROMIS for the age group 10 to 18 years.
This research trial will measure how useful Aprepitant is in preventing nausea and vomiting in children having surgery to correct scoliosis (curvature of the spine).
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is one of the common chronic diseases in childhood. Problems such as weakness or pain may occur in JIA, especially in the joints and the muscles around the trunk (1). These conditions may lead to abnormal displacement of the center of gravity, deterioration of biomechanics, and muscle imbalance in children with JIA (2, 3). All these situations can lead to scoliosis, which we often encounter in children with JIA. Current studies describing various 3-dimension (3D) exercise methods (SEAS, Schroth, Dobomed, BSPTS, Side-shift, Lyon, etc.) effective on scoliosis (4). However, no study was found in the literature that searching the effects of these exercise methods on gait parameters in children with scoliosis diagnosed JIA.
Thirty volunteer patients diagnosed with scoliosis by a specialist physician at Gazi University Hospital Orthopedics and Traumatology Department and subsequently referred to Gazi University Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department for exercise training will be included in the study. The lumbar Pressure Measurement Test with Stabilizer and Rotation Stability Tests will be utilized to evaluate the spinal stability of the patients. Body awareness will be assessed using the Body Awareness Survey, comprising 18 questions. All assessments will be conducted at the Orthopedic Rehabilitation Clinic within the relevant department. The results obtained from this study will elucidate the relationship between body awareness and spinal stability in individuals with scoliosis.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Schroth exercises and kinesiological taping on spinal deformities and serum markers in young adults with scoliosis. The study will include young adults aged 18-21 with scoliosis. A total of 57 participants will be included in the study. Out of 57 participants, 38 have scoliosis, and 19 are healthy. 38 participants will be randomly divided into 2 groups. One group (n=19) will receive only Schroth exercises, and the other group (n=19) will receive both Schroth exercises and kinesiological taping. The laboratory analyses of proteins associated with autophagy (Beclin-1, LC3, and ATG3) and bone-cartilage metabolism (COMP and MMP-3) will be conducted in the Biomedical Engineering Laboratory of our university. Trunk rotation will be assessed using the Adams Forward Bend Test with scoliometer, quality of life will be evaluated with the SRS-22 Quality of Life questionnaire and Quality of life profile for spinal deformities questionnaire, perception of deformity will be measured using the Walter Reed Visual Assessment Scale, and Cobb angles will be evaluated from anterior-posterior X-ray images.
The aim of this study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of mid-transverse process to pleura (MTP) block and intrathecal morphine in idiopathic scoliosis patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion surgery.
In the past, a large number of animal studies have suggested that anesthesia exposure has potential neurotoxic effects, resulting in persistent cognitive and behavioral deficits. At present, there is still a lack of sufficient clinical research evidence to prove whether anesthesia exposure has long-term effects on neurodevelopment. The existing clinical research data suggests that a single short-time anesthesia exposure in young children does not affect long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes. Early onset scoliosis, including congenital scoliosis, is a type of scoliosis deformity that occurs before the age of 10. Posterior scoliosis correction surgery is one of the common treatment. There is currently no research indicating the impact of early single or multiple long-duration anesthesia exposure on the neurological development of children with congenital scoliosis. The aim of this study is to determine the long-term effect of general anesthesia exposure on neurocognitive function and behavior in children with congenital scoliosis, in order to provide reference for related clinical work.
Based on the risk factors affecting adolescent scoliosis found in the previous social survey, this project adopts the paradigm based on transfer learning and semi-supervised learning, and uses mathematical methods such as multiple learning methods and Transformer image classification algorithms to develop and verify the early warning model and stepped treatment model of adolescent scoliosis, and conducts cost-effect analysis.
