Scoliosis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparison of the Efficiency of Schroth Method and Schroth Method Based Virtual Reality Exercises in Individuals With Adolescent Idiopatic Scoliosis
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine of unknown etiology, in the treatment of which physiotherapy-specific scoliosis-specific exercise (PSSE), corset and surgical treatment approaches are used depending on the severity of the curvature [8, 9]. The Schroth method, one of the PSSE methods, has been shown to reduce the severity of the curvature, Cobb angles and the need for surgery, especially in curvatures between 10-30 degrees, slow down the progression of the curvature, increase back muscle strength and improve respiratory functions [10-12]. In the Schroth method, mental imagery, exteroceptive, proprioceptive stimulations and mirror control, which follow motor learning principles and include internal focus, are used to increase body awareness and facilitate the individual's self-posture corrections with postural, sensorimotor and rotational breathing exercises specific to scoliosis [5, 10]. In cases that require long-term treatment, such as scoliosis, the motivation and participation of the child and adolescent population in particular decreases and negatively affects the success of treatment [1, 2]. Additionally, it has been reported in the literature that patients have difficulty in performing Schroth exercises at home and adapting the corrected posture to daily life[5]. For this reason, in order to maintain the corrected posture and make it permanent, motor learning-based approaches must be used [6]. Virtual reality rehabilitation (VR) creates an external focus on the individual, allows for a large number of repetitions, and thus encourages motor learning. It is also known that VR increases motivation, participation and exercise performance in children and adolescents[7]. When the literature was examined, no studies were found regarding VR in individuals with AIS. We think that our study will show that Schroth-based VR will be effective on spinal parameters, trunk rotation and spinal mobility parameters in cases with AIS. Our aim is to examine the effects of Schroth-based VR in comparison with Schroth exercises in cases with AIS.
Schroth method, applied in the conservative treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), uses internally focused feedback to increase body awareness and maintain corrected posture. However, it has been reported in the literature that patients have difficulty in performing exercises at home and adapting the corrected posture to daily life[5]. In addition, since scoliosis rehabilitation requires long-term follow-up, patients' participation in treatment, motivation and exercise performance decrease over time [1, 2]. Virtual reality rehabilitation (VR) creates an external focus on the individual, allows for a large number of repetitions, and thus encourages motor learning [3, 4, 6]. It is also known that SGR increases motivation, participation and exercise performance in children and adolescents[7]. When the literature was examined, no studies were found regarding SGR in individuals with AIS. The primary aim of our study is to investigate the comparative effects of Schroth-based VR and Schroth exercises on spinal parameters, trunk rotation and spinal mobility in cases with AIS. Our secondary aim is that these exercise trainings; To comparatively examine the effects on postural parameters, trunk isometric muscle strength, endurance, proprioception, deformity perception, quality of life and satisfaction. H1 hypothesis: There is a difference between the effects of Schroth-based SGR and Schroth exercises on spinal parameters, trunk rotation and spinal mobility in cases with AIS. H0 hypothesis: In cases with AIS, there is no difference between the effects of Schroth-based SGR and Schroth exercises on spinal parameters, trunk rotation and spinal mobility. Cases that meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly divided into groups as Group I - Schroth Group, Group II - SGR Group -, Group III - Control Group, and a 24-week program will be applied. Evaluations will be performed at baseline, 12 and 24 weeks. We think that our study will be an effective, innovative, technology-based approach that will contribute to the development of spinal and postural parameters in cases with AIS. ;
