Brief Summary

We aimed in this study:

1. 1.To compare the ultrasonographic measurements of the abdominal muscles thickness symmetry in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and adolescent healthy individuals
2. 2.To investigate the effect of measured thickness and symmetry on pulmonary function test.

Conditions

Muscle Physiology; Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Keywords

Abdominal muscle; Cobb angle; Imbalance; Spirometry; Ultrasonography

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Abdominal Muscle Thickness Symmetry

  bilateral ultrasonographic millimetric measurement

  during evaluation, an average of 45 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Spirometry

  during evaluation, an average of 30 minutes

• Cobb angle

  during evaluation, an average of 30 minutes

Study Arms (2)

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis

Ultrasonographic measurements were performed of bilaterally abdominal muscle thickness of AIS patients diagnosed by a specialist. Spirometry evaluation was performed by the investigator

Diagnostic Test: Bilaterally abdominal muscle thickness with ultrasonography

Adolescent healthy individuals

Healthy adolescents aged 10-18 were selected. Ultrasonographic measurements were performed of bilaterally abdominal muscle thickness. Spirometry evaluation was performed by the investigator.

Diagnostic Test: Bilaterally abdominal muscle thickness with ultrasonography

Interventions

Bilaterally abdominal muscle thickness with ultrasonography DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

AIS group was evaluated for localization of curvature and degree of curvature. Ultrasonographic measurements were performed of bilaterally abdominal muscle thickness in the supine and standing positions in both groups. Spirometry evaluation was performed in both groups

Also known as: Spirometry

Adolescent healthy individuals; Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
