Summary

In this study, which aims to evaluate the respiratory functions and respiratory muscle strength of individuals with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS), it is planned to investigate the relationship between the respiratory parameters obtained and the severity, type, location of the curvature, rotation angle and wearing brace.

The population of the study consists of individuals with AIS, and the sample consists of individuals with AIS followed in the Goztepe Prof. Dr. Suleyman Yalcin City Hospital, Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic. For this purpose, it was planned to include at least 60 individuals with AIS, aged 10 years and older, with at least 20 degrees of scoliotic curvature, who applied to the clinic for the first time or came for control.

Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT) will be applied to evaluate the respiratory functions of the participants involved, and intraoral pressure measurement (MIP, MEP) will be applied to evaluate the inspiratory and expiratory muscle strengths; The severity of the scoliotic curvature will be measured with the Cobb method on the same day's radiograph, and the axial rotation angle will be measured with the Scoliometer.

IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences Version 24 statistical program will be used in the analysis of the data. Continuous variables will be given as mean ± standard deviation, qualitative variables as numbers and percentages.

Pearson Correlation analysis will be used for the relationship between the variables, Independent Samples t-test will be used for the comparison of independent groups, and statistical significance will be taken as p≤0.05 in all measurements.

It is thought that this planned study will contribute to studies evaluating the respiratory functions and respiratory muscle strength of individuals with AIS, which have been designed in different types and reported different results in the literature.

Evidence-based data obtained by determining the clinical parameters associated with these values are expected to guide clinicians in terms of being holistic in the treatment of individuals with scoliosis, and in which situations and for what purpose pulmonary rehabilitation approaches should be included.
