청소년 특발성 척추측만증에서의 횡격막 가동
청소년 특발성 척추측만증에서 슈로트 최선의 실천 프로그램에 횡격막 이동술을 추가한 효과: 무작위 대조 시험
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional spinal deformity that can affect posture, trunk movement, and respiratory function. Changes in the shape of the rib cage may influence diaphragm function and breathing mechanics in individuals with scoliosis. The Schroth Best Practice (SBP) exercise program is commonly used in the conservative treatment of scoliosis and focuses on posture correction and scoliosis-specific exercises. However, the additional benefits of manual diaphragm mobilization combined with this exercise program are not well known.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effect of diaphragm mobilization added to the Schroth Best Practice program in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: one group will perform the SBP exercise program alone, and the other group will receive SBP exercises combined with diaphragm mobilization. The intervention will be performed three times per week for six weeks.
Assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 6-week intervention, and at a 12-week follow-up. Outcomes will include respiratory function measured by spirometry, trunk rotation, thoracic mobility, trunk flexibility, quality of life, and body image. The results of this study may help determine whether adding diaphragm mobilization to scoliosis-specific exercise programs improves clinical outcomes in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis.

상세 설명
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional structural deformity of the spine that occurs during growth and may affect posture, trunk mechanics, and respiratory function. Thoracic deformity and rib cage asymmetry associated with scoliosis can alter the biomechanical function of the diaphragm and reduce respiratory efficiency. Previous studies have reported decreased pulmonary function parameters in individuals with AIS, which may contribute to functional limitations and reduced quality of life.
Physiotherapeutic scoliosis-specific exercise approaches, such as the Schroth Best Practice (SBP) program, are widely used in the conservative management of scoliosis. The SBP program includes curve-specific corrective exercises and postural education aimed at improving spinal alignment, trunk symmetry, and functional capacity. Despite the documented benefits of SBP exercises, the potential role of diaphragm-focused manual therapy techniques in scoliosis rehabilitation has not been sufficiently investigated.
This study is designed as a prospective, randomized, parallel-group clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of diaphragm mobilization added to the Schroth Best Practice program in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. Participants diagnosed with AIS will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: (1) SBP exercise program combined with diaphragm mobilization or (2) SBP exercise program alone. The intervention will be performed three times per week for six weeks.
Clinical assessments will be conducted at baseline, at the end of the 6-week intervention period, and at a 12-week follow-up. Primary outcomes will include respiratory function parameters measured using spirometry, including forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC ratio, and peak expiratory flow (PEF). Secondary outcomes will include trunk rotation measured using a scoliometer, thoracic mobility assessed by thoracic circumference difference during maximal inspiration and expiration, trunk lateral flexion flexibility, and patient-reported outcomes including quality of life (Scoliosis Research Society-22 questionnaire) and body image (Walter Reed Visual Assessment Scale).
The findings of this study are expected to provide evidence regarding the clinical effects of diaphragm mobilization when integrated into scoliosis-specific exercise programs and may contribute to the development of more comprehensive rehabilitation strategies for adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis.

실험적: Schroth Best Practice Program + Diaphragm Mobilization
Participants in this group will receive the Schroth Best Practice exercise program combined with diaphragm mobilization. The intervention will be performed three times per week for six weeks. |
Manual diaphragm mobilization will be performed with the participant in the supine position. The therapist will place both hands along the inferior costal margin and apply a gentle mobilization in coordination with the participant's breathing cycle. During inspiration and expiration, the inferior costal margin will be mobilized in a cranial and lateral direction. The technique will be performed for 20 breathing cycles and repeated twice during each treatment session with short rest periods between repetitions. The intervention will be applied at the end of each treatment session throughout the 6-week treatment period.
