The Type of Conservative Management Could Be Related to the Strength of the Inspiratory Muscles of Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis—A Case Series
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a lateral curvature of the spine with a Cobb angle of at least 10° with an unknown etiology. It is recognized that AIS may affect respiratory function. This study aims to describe and compare respiratory function in a case series of patients with scoliosis wh...

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a lateral curvature of the spine with a Cobb angle of at least 10° with an unknown etiology. It is recognized that AIS may affect respiratory function. This study aims to describe and compare respiratory function in a case series of patients with scoliosis who underwent different types of therapeutic management: no intervention, orthotic brace, and global postural reeducation (GPR). Fifteen AIS patients were included in this study (seven no intervention, four orthotic brace and four GPR). Lung function and inspiratory muscle strength were measured and analyzed, as well as sociodemographic, clinical, and anthropometric variables. Significant correlations were observed between height (cm) and maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) reference (cmH<sub>2</sub>O) and forced vital capacity (FVC) (liters) (<i>r = 0</i>.650 and <i>r</i> = 0.673, respectively; <i>p</i> < 0.01); weight (Kg) and MIP reference (cmH<sub>2</sub>O) (<i>r</i> = 0.727; <i>p</i> < 0.01); and Main curve degrees (Cobb angle) and FVC% (<i>r</i> = −0.648; <i>p</i> < 0.01).
