Summary

This randomized controlled trial investigates the effects of augmented reality (AR)-based exercise training in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. Participants are randomly assigned to either a control group receiving conventional Physiotherapeutic Scoliosis-Specific Exercises (PSSE-Schroth) or an intervention group receiving AR-assisted PSSE-Schroth exercises. The primary outcomes include body awareness, trunk appearance perception, and exercise adherence. The study aims to evaluate whether AR-assisted training provides additional benefits over conventional therapy in improving postural control, perception, and compliance in scoliosis management.

Conditions

  • Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Conventional PSSE-Schroth

Participants performed conventional Physiotherapeutic Scoliosis-Specific Exercises (PSSE-Schroth) for 4 weeks. The program consisted of one 45-minute supervised session per week complemented by home-based exercises. The exercises focused on posture correction, spinal alignment, and corrective breathing techniques according to standard scoliosis rehabilitation protocols.

BEHAVIORAL

AR-Assisted PSSE-Schroth

Participants performed Physiotherapeutic Scoliosis-Specific Exercises (PSSE-Schroth) enhanced with augmented reality (AR) support for 4 weeks. The intervention included one 45-minute supervised session per week, plus home-based exercises. The AR system provided real-time visual and kinesthetic feedback during exercise sessions to improve body awareness, trunk appearance perception, and adherence.
