About

Spinal deformities, such as scoliosis, can have a significant impact on the physical and psychological health of patients. Over time, specific tools for this condition have been developed to investigate the extent of this impact, such as the SRS-22 questionnaire and ISYQOL questionnaire.

The latter was initially used for underage patients, but given that some of them continue their therapy and the monitoring beyond the age of 18, we have continued its use in these subjects as well. Given the clinical usefulness and given the lack of questionnaires developed in the Rasch environment for adults, we have extended the application of the ISYQOL questionnaire to the adult population. However, a comparison between the ISYQOL and SRS-22 in adults has not yet been made.

The objective of this study is to verify the validity of ISYQOL and to compare the properties of ISYQOL with those of the SRS-22 questionnaire in adults with spinal deformity.
