Brief Summary

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

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect that corrective surgery for scoliosis would have on pulmonary function as well as the circumference of the chest. As a result, the current investigation was carried out on thirty individuals who had idiopathic scoliosis and had been admitted to the hospital. Before the surgery, after it had been completed (on the fifth day), and again three months later, the pulmonary function was tested.

Detailed Description

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

The purpose of this study was to see how corrective scoliosis surgery affected pulmonary function and chest circumference. As a result, the current investigation was carried out on 30 individuals brought to the hospital with idiopathic scoliosis. The pulmonary function was assessed before surgery, on the fifth day following surgery, and three months thereafter.
