Proprioception study for teens with scoliosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial looks at how teens with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis sense body position (proprioception) before spinal fusion surgery. It uses brain MRI scans to understand the condition better.

This study looks at how the brain and muscles work together in teens with spinal curves (scoliosis). It uses skin sensors and brain wave tests to understand muscle control, which may help improve treatments.
This study looks at how scoliosis may affect how you see and process visual information. It compares teens with scoliosis to teens without it to better understand any differences.
This trial looks at a specific surgical technique for teens whose scoliosis is severe enough that doctors have recommended surgery. It may help doctors compare approaches and improve outcomes after spinal fusion.
This study tests a new 3D imaging method to assess scoliosis by comparing back height difference and trunk rotation angle. It aims to find a simpler way to measure spinal curves in teenagers with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
This study asks teens with idiopathic scoliosis to complete psychological assessments while planning for elective back surgery. It may help doctors better understand patients’ mental and emotional needs around surgery.
This trial tests whether adding Basic Body Awareness Therapy (a gentle movement practice that helps you notice how your body feels and moves) to standard scoliosis exercises can improve posture and reduce discomfort in teenagers with scoliosis.
