MOUVSCO: Kinematic Analysis of the Trunk in Patients With Moderate Scoliosis

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Scoliosis
Interventions
Other: Data recording with all sensors
Registration Number
NCT02134704
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Grenoble
Brief Summary

The hypothesis of this study is that moderate scoliosis patients have postural and kinematic differences (static and dynamic) compared with healthy volunteers and it is possible to characterize and quantify.

The aim of this study is the detailed analysis of postural anomalies in moderate scoliosis patients compared with healthy volunteers

Detailed Description

Subjects participating in the study must wear sensors that will be arrange at the shoulders, spine, pelvis and legs. Subjects will perform under the direction of the investigator, different tasks of a total duration of 45 minutes.

During the period of experimentation, the data collected will be:

* the positions of each one of the sensors in all three planes of space,

* the ground support forces

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Relative movements, in mm, of the spinous processes in the three planes of space2 hours

Characterize the kinematic anomalies in scoliosis patients compared with healthy volunteers during typical tasks of trunk flexion.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Walking speed, step length and single stance time.2 hours

Assess the performance of walking in scoliosis patients.

The surface of displacement of the center of plantar pressure, static relative orientation of the bi-acromial line, thoracic and pelvic plan.2 hours

Assess balance and static posture of scoliotic patients.

Relative rotations of the bi-acromial line, thoracic and pelvic plan.2 hours

* Assess the existence of kinematic differences between the scoliosis patients and healthy volunteers during forward bending.

* Assess the kinematic differences between the scoliosis patients and healthy volunteers when they sit and up from a stool.

* Assess the kinematic differences between the scoliosis patients and healthy volunteers during walking.
