Brief Summary

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

Trunk rotation and distortion of the rib cage, which are common in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, result in abnormal configuration of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. This reduces the capacity of the respiratory muscles to produce force, and results in respiratory muscle weakness. The diaphragm, which is the major respiratory muscle, is also a component of the core muscles responsible for postural stability. Therefore, diaphragm muscle weakness results in deterioration of postural stability. Our aim in this study is to investigate the effect of inspiratory muscle training added to the routine scoliosis exercise program on postural stability and posture perception.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Control Group

Patients in this group will receive conventional scoliosis exercise program for 1 hour, 6 days a week for 8 weeks. One exercise session will be supervised in a clinic per week, other sessions will be performed at home.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Conventional Scoliosis Exercise Program

Intervention Type OTHER

Program will include breathing exercises, spinal stabilization and strengthening exercises, posture exercises and stretching execises.

Training Group

In addition to the conventional scoliosis exercise program, patients in this group will also receive inspiratory muscle training for 15 minutes, twice a day, 6 days a week for 8 weeks. One exercise session will be supervised in a clinic per week, other sessions will be performed at home.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Conventional Scoliosis Exercise Program

Intervention Type OTHER

Program will include breathing exercises, spinal stabilization and strengthening exercises, posture exercises and stretching execises.

Inspiratory Muscle Training

Intervention Type OTHER

Threshold IMT device will be used for the training. Training intensity will set at 30% of the maximum inspiratory pressure.
