The physical rehabilitation effects on the dynamics indices of a trunk muscle strength tolerance in iranian children with scoliosis

Abstract

Among the most common orthopedic diseases is Scoliosis. Depending on different ituations its frequency differs dramatically from 0.5 to 20%. As the number of children with scoliosis has recently been increasing, rehabilitation programs for the correction and prevention of scoliosis, generally in the educational institutions, was developed. In this research, we studied the real problem of correction scoliosis, deformation, and infringements of a bearing in a frontal plane in conditions. The aim of this research was to study the effect of physical rehabilitation programs for primary school age children with incorrect posture in the frontal plane, and scoliosis in first and second degree in educational institution of Iran, on the strength endurance of trunk muscles. A sample of 165 was selected among the primary school age children who got the incorrect posture in the frontal plane, and scoliosis first and second degree, living in Iran from 6 to 8 years. Trunk muscle strength endurance was measured once at the beginning and once again at the end of the pedagogical experiment. Results indicated that the method applied in the classroom of physical education and physiotherapy, have caused the functionality of the back muscles on either side of the spine, which affected the increase in the level of development in main group children to be leveled.The time that the pedagogical experiment increases strength endurance of the back muscles in the control group number one was 7.2 sec (13.8%), in the main was 17.8 sec (35%), the differences were significant.
