ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a treatment for idiopathic scoliosis, which is a condition where the spine curves in an unusual way for unknown reasons. The study compares two approaches: one group will do special exercises known as the Schroth method combined with core stabilization exercises (which help strengthen the muscles around the spine), while the other group will do only the Schroth method exercises. The goal is to see if adding core stabilization exercises helps improve spinal curvature, muscle endurance, chest movement, and overall quality of life better than the Schroth method alone.

The trial is looking for participants between the ages of 10 and 18 who have been diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis showing a mild to moderate curve (between 10 and 30 degrees on an X-ray). Both boys and girls can join, including those with scoliosis related to Down syndrome. People with other neurological or serious health conditions, or those who have had spine surgery, won’t be eligible. If you take part, you can expect to do exercise sessions over 10 weeks, with check-ins at the start, middle, and end of the study to measure progress. The results so far suggest that combining these exercises may lead to better improvements in spine shape, strength, and quality of life.
