Comparison of the Efficiency of Schroth Method and Virtual Reality Exercises in Individuals With AIS

RCT
Start date: June 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.

Does Teicoplanin Powder Use In Lumbar Instrumentation Surgery Reduce Surgical Site Infection

Start date: April 15, 2020
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Infection after spinal surgery is one of the serious complications. Spinal surgery infection can cause high morbidity, mortality, and costs. In spite of different prophylactic methods, up to 15% of infection appears after spinal surgery. Vancomycin powder, which is one of the most applied methods, seems to be effective and inexpensive. However, vancomycin administration may be inconvenient in elderly participants with high comorbidity and especially kidney problems. The investigators aimed to reduce the rate of infection in the post-op 90-day period by adding per-op Teicoplanin powder onto the implant in participants scheduled for lumbar posterior instrumentation.
