Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is a rotational deformity of the spine that could be seen 2-3% of population. Conservative treatment of AIS with 20-45 degree lateral flexion angle (Cobb) includes brace and therapeutic exercises. Some gait abnormalities were defined like decreased torsional movements of spine, increased muscular work and energy expenditure in AIS. Additionally wearing a brace limits pelvic motions and affects pendulum-like mechanism of gait. Our aim was to investigate gait energy consumption, pulmonary functions, balance and lower extremity loading symmetry in AIS subjects who are getting conservative treatment.
