| dc.description.abstract | Background: Spinal orthosis applications are preferred for conservative treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, and holistic biomechanical approaches are recommended. Methods: This was single-blind, prospective, randomized, controlled study. It included 42 patients (29 females/13 males) aged 10–18 years with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, Cobb angle of 20°–45°, who were deemed suitable for spinal orthosis use. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: control, spinal orthosis group (n = 21), and insoles and spinal orthosis group (n = 21). All participants used spinal orthoses for 3 months. This study evaluated the functional capacities, quality of life, balance, and plantar pressures of the participants. The evaluations were repeated after 1 week, and 3 months following spinal orthosis application. Findings: Statistically significant difference and positive effect were observed in Cobb angle (p = 0.008; p = 0.878, respectively), right total (p = 0.037; p = 0.193, respectively), left total (p = 0.037; p = 0.193, respectively), left rearfoot (p = 0.002; p = 0.708, respectively), and right forefoot plantar pressure (p = 0.001; p = 0.739, respectively) in participants in insoles and spinal orthosis group compared with those in the control group. Statistically significant differences and positive effects were observed in swing length (p = 0.001; p = 0.053, respectively) and functional capacity (p = 0.005; p = 0.220, respectively), which are parameters related to postural balance. No change was found in quality of life of either group (p > 0.05). Interpretation: Insoles may have positive impact on functional capacity, balance, and plantar pressure during long-term follow-up in individuals with scoliosis. Therefore, the evaluation of foot plantar pressure in individuals with scoliosis is recommended, and personalized insoles may be a beneficial option. | |
