About

This cross-sectional study investigates the relationship between different curve patterns in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) and the distribution of foot pressure. It aims to determine whether coronal and sagittal curve patterns are associated with asymmetries in plantar pressure distribution during static standing.

Full description

Study Objectives Primary Objective: To assess the correlation between curve pattern and foot pressure percentage in the coronal plane.

Secondary Objective: To assess the correlation between curve pattern and foot pressure percentage in the sagittal plane.

Study Design Type: Observational (Cross-sectional) Model: two Group Time Perspective: Cross-Sectional Statistical Analysis: Pearson correlation coefficient will be used to determine the strength and direction of the relationship.

Enrollment: 84 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 10 to 18 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• • 1- Adolescents aged 10-18 years.

  • 2- Diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis.
  • 3- Cobb angle between 10° and 45°.
  • 4- No prior surgical intervention for scoliosis.

Exclusion criteria

• • 1- Presence of congenital or neuromuscular scoliosis.

  • 2- Previous spinal surgery.

Trial design

84 participants in 2 patient groups

Major Thoracic

Description:

The cohort will consist of adolescents aged 10-18 years diagnosed with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), with Cobb angles ranging from 10° to 45°, and no prior surgical intervention. Participants will be recruited from orthopedic scoliosis clinics such as ARC for Physiotherapy. The study will involve non-invasive assessments including baropodometric foot pressure analysis and radiographic evaluation of scoliosis curve patterns. No therapeutic intervention will be applied; the study is observational and cross-sectional in nature.

Treatment:

Diagnostic Test: Foot pressure Distribution test
