简要总结
Idiopathic scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine that accounts for approximately 70% of all scoliosis anomalies, and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common type. AIS not only changes the shape of the trunk, but also the relationships between body parts. Considering the close anatomical relationship between the scapula and the rib cage, AIS is associated with changes in scapular position and orientation. Scapular stabilization exercises; these are exercises that aim to restore the position and orientation of the scapula and the motor control and movement pattern of the muscles, thus providing scapula stability for better shoulder kinematics. There are studies reporting that scapular stabilization exercises should be included in the rehabilitation program of patients with scapular dyskinesia and various shoulder pathologies. However, no study has been found in the literature examining the effects of scapular stabilization exercises on changes in scapular position, shoulder imbalance and curve severity seen in scoliosis. Therefore, the aim of the study is to investigate the effect of scapular stabilization exercises applied in addition to Schroth exercises used in the treatment of individuals with AIS, on scoliosis severity, scapula position and shoulder imbalance.

结局指标
主要结局
Scoliosis Severity
时间窗: Change from baseline at 8 weeks
In determining the degree of curvature, the Cobb angle obtained from the spine x-ray taken in the antero-posterior direction and containing the entire spine will be accepted as the standard measurement method. End vertebral levels will be recorded on the antero-posterior x-ray. Lines perpendicular to the upper end plate of the upper end vertebra and the lower end plate of the lower end vertebra will be drawn and the angle formed between these lines will be recorded as the Cobb angle.
