Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of virtual reality games (VRG) on changing the location of the center of gravity in children with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).

Twenty-four patients with AIS will be randomly allocated to two groups. The intervention group will apply to the virtual reality games and basic correction exercises group for six weeks (18 sessions). The control group will be given the basic correction exercises. Patients' center of gravity (Physiosoft Balance System), posture parameters (PostureScreen Mobile, Posterior Trunk Asymmetry Index (POTSI) and Anterior Trunk Asymmetry Index (ATSI)), cosmetic perception (Walter Reed Visual Evaluation Scale (WRVAS)) will assess at the first session and the end of 6 weeks.

Conditions

  • Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Interventions

OTHER

Virtual Reality Games

Six different Nintendo Wii Fit Plus games will be employed for six weeks, three days a week, for a total of 18 sessions ranging from 40 to 60 minutes. The games will be chosen from those that emphasize shifting the body's center of gravity. In addition, participants will be given basic correction exercises (derotation, deflexion, basic tension, and lateral flexion 3\*3) at the beginning of the study and instructed to practice them at home for six weeks.

OTHER

Waiting List

As the control group, the cases on the waiting list will be evaluated. The control group will be given basic elements of corrective exercises (derotation, deflexion, basic tension, and lateral flexion 3\*3) at the start of the study and instructed to practice at home for six weeks.
