Wireless muscle monitoring for teen scoliosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study uses a wireless sensor to measure how back muscles work in teens with scoliosis. It may help doctors better understand the condition and guide future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
- Your spine curvature (Cobb angle) is between 10 and 25 degrees.
- You have not had any prior surgery or other treatment for scoliosis.
- You do not have any neurological conditions or other major orthopedic issues.
- You do not have severe back pain that would interfere with the measurements.

This study tests a new computer-based support system designed to help teenagers stay motivated and consistent with wearing their prescribed scoliosis braces. The system uses interactive tools and feedback to make brace-wearing easier and more manageable.
This study tests a personalized health management plan for teens with mild to moderate scoliosis (spine curve less than 45 degrees). It aims to help prevent the curve from getting worse and improve treatment through a special online platform.
This study looks at foot pressure patterns in teenagers with and without scoliosis (a curve in the spine). It aims to find a quick, painless way to help detect scoliosis using a mat that senses foot pressure when you stand.
This study tests a type of exercise called body awareness therapy that helps you notice how your body moves and feels. It aims to improve your posture and spine movement, and may help reduce your scoliosis curve. It is for teenagers with scoliosis who have not yet had treatment.
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.
This study looks at how proteins in the blood may help us understand why teenagers develop scoliosis (a sideways curve in the spine). If you have mild to moderate scoliosis and are getting care at Children's Hospital Colorado, you may be able to join this study to help researchers learn more about the condition.
