Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of back muscle activations on idiopathic scoliosis

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

* Design: Prospective study
* Setting: hospital rehabilitation department
* Intervention: Participants were asked to walk with a surface electromyography(EMG) attached to their back muscles. After repeating the same process with different leg lengths discrepancy (0cm, 0.5cm, 1cm), participants are compared the main outcome measures.
* Main outcome measures: surface electromyography(EMG)

Healthy children (5 to 12 years old)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

gait with leg length discrepancy

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

After attaching the surface electromyography(EMG) to bilateral back muscles, participants walk at a comfortable speed. The investigators will evaluate the effects of leg length discrepancy on the back muscle activation during gait.
