Active clinical trials for "Scoliosis"

Do spinal stabilization exercises demonstrate immediate and long-term effects of weight weeks of spinal stabilization exercises as measured by pain intensity and quality of life scores? Does eight weeks of spinal stabilization exercises improve back muscle endurance in adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis (IS) with low back pain (LBP), compared to a one-time treatment (control)? Hypotheses: The research hypothesis for Question 1 is: Participants who receive eight weeks of spinal stabilization exercises will demonstrate significantly improved pain intensity and quality of life scores compared to participants who receive a one-time treatment after eight weeks of the intervention period and at six-month follow-up. The research hypothesis for Question 2 is: Participants who receive eight weeks of the spinal stabilization exercises will demonstrate significantly improved back muscle endurance, compared to participants who receive a one-time treatment after eight weeks of intervention.

This study plans to learn more about preventing pain in children who are having posterior spinal fusion surgery using two different kinds of morphine (a pain medicine). Also, this study plans to learn about individual differences in the how the different kinds of morphine work in children. Subjects are being asked to be in this research study because they are having spinal fusion surgery, will have pain some of the time and will be getting morphine during and after surgery to help control their pain.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of continuous local anesthetic delivery on the immediate post-op recovery of patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery for congenital or idiopathic scoliosis.

The purpose of this study is to examine if morphine administered by bolus before initiating Remifentanil by infusion decreases the incidence of acute post-operative opioid tolerance as demonstrated by decreased post - operative morphine consumption in children undergoing scoliosis surgery.

The purpose of this study is to establish whether rHuEpo is as effective as PAD in increasing red cell mass prior to surgery. Other benefits of the PAD program and preoperative administration of rHuEpo will also be compared.

The aim of this study was to see the effect of pilates-based exercise training applied with hybrid telerehabilitation method on Cobb angle, trunk rotation angle (ATR), respiratory functions, respiratory muscle strength and functional capacity in children with AIS between the ages of 10-18 and home-based pilates exercise. compare its effectiveness with respect to its training. Investigators of this study think that synchronous telerehabilitation sessions added to home-based pilates exercise training in children with AIS with moderate and moderate-to-severe curves can have positive effects on the evaluation parameters examined, and the results of this study can guide the relevant physiotherapists and health professionals by adding a new perspective to the literature.

The goal of this observational study is to collect information about The Tether™ device in participants with progressive idiopathic scoliosis, Lenke Type 1 curves. The main purpose is to provide assessment of: ongoing safety probable benefits Participants who will receive The Tether™ during spine surgery will have to attend follow-up visits which are part of standard-of-care.

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.

Today, it is known that the conservative treatment of scoliosis is gaining importance. In addition, no study has been found comparing the efficacy of two important conservative treatment methods, the Schroth and Lyon method, in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Accordingly, this study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of schroth and Lyon exercises in individuals with AIS.

Preventing pre-surgical stress can help patients achieve positive outcomes on health and well-being. However, very few patients receive adequate stress relief support prior to a surgical procedure. Provision of education and information about the surgery can be a crucial component of the preoperative experience and is inversely related to levels of preoperative anxiety. However, resource constraints make face-to-face education sessions untenable, given cost considerations and time investment by trained health personnel. Interventions based on mobile health (mHealth) technologies, geared towards increasing familiarity with surgical procedures and hospital environments have been shown to help patients feel informed about possible benefits and risks of available treatment options. mHealth apps and Virtual Reality (VR) can offer patients experience in the perioperative environment that can be helpful in empowering patients and enhancing a more positive experience, while reducing stress. However, available applications focus only on providing informative content, neglecting the importance of patient empowerment with a more robust educational curriculum. According to this, the Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) CARINAE, aims to support patients and caregivers during the whole perioperative process. SaMD CARINAE consists of an mHealth mobile application for patients and caregivers, a Virtual Reality headset for patients, and a web application for healthcare professionals.
