Conservative Management for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Sponsor: Umm Al-Qura University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Idiopathic scoliosis is a living problem that resists correction. The underlying cause of the such disorder is unknown but directed more toward muscular disorders. However recent clinical observation showed a possible neuromuscular compromise early in those patients. The main purpose of this study is to develop a treatment procedure to correct the degree of bony curvature in patients with Idiopathic scoliosis through developing a neuromuscular corrective approach that might be a more effective conservative treatment protocol for such disorder.

Interventions

OTHER

Scoliosis-Specific Exercise Program

Adolescents in the control group will receive a scoliosis-specific exercise program which will be prescribed to control the progression of the scoliotic curve. This exercise program will include frontal plane active or passive correction exercises for scoliotic posture. The exercise program for every participant will be three sessions per week for 12 successive weeks. Every treatment session was applied for one hour.The exercise program for every participant will be three sessions per week for 12 successive weeks. Every treatment session was applied for one hour.

OTHER

Soft orthoses with external strapping.

Adolescents in the experimental group will receive a scoliosis-specific exercises program which will be prescribed to control the progression of the scoliotic curve in addition to wearing the soft orthoses with external strapping. The wearing schedule of the soft orthosis with the external strapping for every participant in this group will be 12 hours daily for 12 successive weeks.
