Filter by:The aims of this pilot study are to determine the metabolic demand and exercise intensity level of E-Fit exercise intervention by evaluating the cardiovascular responses in AIS girls and whether the cardiovascular responses for AIS girls performing E-Fit will behave in the same way as compared to healthy controls. We hypothesise that 1) the metabolic demand and exercise intensity of E-Fit exercise intervention is equivalent to moderate-to-vigorous level; and 2) AIS girls have different cardiovascular responses as compared to healthy controls
The ISYQOL questionnaire was translated into Turkish and was assessed the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the ISYQOL in terms of test-retest reliability, internal consistency, and construct validity in this research.
We aimed in this study: 1. To compare the ultrasonographic measurements of the abdominal muscles thickness symmetry in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and adolescent healthy individuals 2. To investigate the effect of measured thickness and symmetry on pulmonary function test.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of two different exercises in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. In total, 28 subjects with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were randomly divided into two groups: Schroth (n = 14) and stabilization group (n = 14). The Schroth group received Schroth exercises in addition to traditional rehabilitation, and the stabilization group received core stabilization in addition to traditional rehabilitation for 10 weeks. The outcome measures were based on Cobb angle, angle of trunk rotation, spinal mobility, cosmetic trunk deformity, muscle strength, and quality of life.
The proposed investigation is a pilot study that involves pediatric patients affected by spinal deformity (Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis and Osteogenesis Imperfecta). The main goal is to evaluate the acceptability, the safety and the overall satisfaction of the patients wearing the back braces produced with an innovative methodology using 3D printers, compared to the current braces manufactured with a production model based on thermoforming, that has well-established clinical efficacy.
Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain is one of the most common types of pain among children and adolescents. Recurring episodes of MSK pain conditions have a major impact on the daily lives. Children and adolescents with neuromuscular diseases are often unable to report the pain the patients experience because of intellectual and/or physical limitations. There is no reason to believe that pain is any less frequent or intense in these patients than in normally developing patients. Because of the elusive nature of pain in non-verbal children, therapeutic decisions are frequently based on vague proxy measures of pain and revert to a series of trials and errors. This project creates a unique opportunity to directly characterize and compare MSK and surgical pain subjectively in two different patient samples (verbal and non-verbal). The ultimate goal is to use this information to offer the highest quality of pain control in children with MSK conditions, and more specifically in children with limited communication skills unable to communicate their distress associated with the surgical procedural.
A retrospective analysis to ascertain the correlation between metal density and deformity correction among individuals with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Scoliosis is a lateral curvature of the spine when the Cobb´s angle more than 10˚ on the frontal plane. Curve detection before skeletal maturation gives a good opportunity for early treatment or prevention of curve progression. Purpose of this study was to evaluate Adam's Forward Bend Test and Scoliometer HD in screening of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of expanded patient education and coping skills on pain management following multilevel pediatric spinal surgery. The intervention will include a smartphone- based platform and a comprehensive library of peri-operative educational and coping skills videos as a means for better addressing the psychosocial elements of a child's individual pain experience. The study evaluated whether this novel intervention will reduce pain, improve outcomes and accelerate functional recovery up to 6 weeks after surgery.
The purpose of this study is to establish a benchmark for measuring blood loss by directly measuring the change in red cell volume before and after surgery and to compare established blood loss estimators to this benchmark in order to determine the most accurate and precise method for estimating blood loss in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery patients
