| Objective: To explore the curative effect of rehabilitation therapy under the guidance of remote Internet of Things monitoring in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) after conservative treatment. Methods: A total of 74 patients with AIS treated were enrolled. According to random envelope method, they were divided into control group (brace wearing + rehabilitation therapy) and experimental group (intelligent wearable extension rehabilitation system on basis of control group), 37 cases in each group. After 24 months of follow-up, clinical curative effect, full-spinal X-ray film indexes ［scoliosis Cobb angle, apical vertebral rotation (AVR), apical vertebral translocation (AVT), trunk shift (TS)］ and lung function ［forced vital capacity as a percentage of the predicted value (FVC%), forced expiratory volume in the first second/FVC (FEV1/FVC), minute ventilation volume (MVV)］ before and after treatment, adverse reactions and safety indexes during treatment were compared between the two groups. Results: After treatment, Cobb angle, AVR, AVT and TS were significantly decreased in both groups, which were lower in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05，0.01), while FVC%, FEV1/FVC and MVV were significantly increased, which were higher in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05，0.01). The total response rate of experimental group was higher than that of control group (94.29% vs 75.76%, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in abnormal rate of safety indexes between the two groups. Conclusion: Curative effect of rehabilitation therapy under the guidance of remote Internet of Things monitoring is good in AIS after conservative treatment, which can improve correction effect and lung function, with good safety. |
