Summary

It has been observed that there are insufficient studies on whether the conservative treatment of AIS with Chêneau spinal orthosis provides 3D correction on the scoliotic curve and its effect on the spine and lower extremity parameters. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Chêneau spinal orthosis application on sagittal and frontal parameters at 3 and 6 months follow-up in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Detailed description

Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine that is commonly seen in individuals aged 10-18 years, and spinal orthosis application, one of the conservative treatment methods, is widely preferred today. Lyon, Milwaukee, Gensingen, Boston and Rigo System Chêneau spinal orthoses are among the most frequently preferred today. Rigo system Chêneau (RCS) spinal orthosis aims to correct scoliosis in 3D in sagittal, transverse and coronal planes. Studies have indicated that spinal orthosis application may have limited corrective effect on sagittal and transverse planes scoliotic curvature. In order to obtain the most effective result in spinal orthosis application, it is important to fully understand the connection mechanisms between different planes and their relationship with the lower extremity. It has been observed that studies on whether conservative treatment of spinal orthosis in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) can provide 3D correction on the scoliotic curve and its effect on spine and lower extremity parameters are insufficient. AIS individuals who will undergo Chêneau type spinal orthosis application that meets the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. Demographic information of the participants will be obtained with a patient information form and a scoliosis assessment form. Radiographs are planned to be obtained using an EOS (EOS-imaging®, Paris, France) imaging device, which is a low-dose imaging device that provides simultaneous anterior-posterior and lateral views while standing. Spine and lower extremity parameters will be evaluated from the obtained images. Plantar pressure and balance assessment is planned to be performed with a DIERS Pedoscan device connected to the DIERS Formetric system. SRS-22 (Scoliosis Research Society-22) questionnaire is planned to be used in the assessment of the quality of life of the individuals. Brace Questionnaire is planned to be used in the assessment of spinal orthosis satisfaction. All data will be evaluated by statistical analysis methods.
