Overview
Brief Summary
This study was planned to investigate whether there is a visual-spatial perception disorder in individuals with idiopathic scoliosis and also to reveal its dependent/independent relationship with vestibular dysfunction.
Detailed Description
Vestibular dysfunction is thought to be associated with the etiology of patients with idiopathic scoliosis. However, there is limited data on this in the literature. However, visuospatial ability has been evaluated in the literature regarding vestibular dysfunction independent of scoliosis. In the study, it was first requested to investigate vestibular dysfunction in patients with scoliosis. However, as far as is known, there is no study in the literature on visuospatial perception investigated for vestibular dysfunction in patients with scoliosis. This study was planned to investigate whether there is a disorder related to visuospatial perception and to reveal its dependent/independent relationship with vestibular dysfunction. Based on the studies, it is planned to evaluate visuospatial (visual-spatial) perception performance in the presence/absence of vestibular dysfunction in individuals with idiopathic scoliosis. The hypothesis of the study is that vestibular function and related visual-spatial perception may be affected in individuals with idiopathic scoliosis.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Evaluation of vestibular dysfunction-2
Time Frame: 10 month
Unterberger test will be used. Subjects will close their eyes and with their shoulders flexed 90 degrees and arms extended forward, the amount of rotation in 50 steps will be measured as an angle.
Visual spatial perception
Time Frame: 10 month
The mobile application score called Corsi Block Tapping will be recorded.
Evaluation of vestibular dysfunction-1
Time Frame: 10 month
Unterberger test will be used. Subjects will close their eyes and measure displacement in 50 steps with their shoulders flexed 90 degrees and arms extended forward.
Secondary Outcomes
- Balance assessment-1(10 month)
- Balance assessment-2(10 month)
- Navigasyon performansında(10 month)
- Quality of life assessment(10 month)
