초록

The present study was performed to investigate the prevalence rate of idiopathic scoliosis and to determine the effect of exercise training on scoliotic angle in elementary school children. In this study, two out of five elementary schools inSeosancity were chosen by random sampling. Seven hundred sixty four shudents (from four grade to the sixth grade student) were selected in two schools. Screening tess were conducted to find idiopathic scoliosis. Among the 764 individuals, 139 subjectswhoshowed positive sign in physical examination took whole spine radiography. Thirty six subjects who had a curve of 10 or greater and consented to participate in the exercise program were selected for the exercise program. The exercise program wasperformed four times a week for 5 months. The results of this study were as follows: 1) One hundred thirty nine subjects showed positive sign in the scoliosis screening test. 2) The overall prevalence of curve4 of 10。 or greater in X-ray findingwas8.15%. The prevalencies of curve of 10。 or greater in male and female were 7.1% and 9.2%, respectively. 3) Scoliosis curves were observed at thoracic area (48.4%), at thoracolumbar area (26.4%) and at lumber area(24.4%). 4) Right side curve was59.7%,and left side curve was 40.3%. 5) After the 5 month exercise program for scoliosis, the Cobb's angle was significantly decreased. 6) There was no significant difference of Cobb's angle change respect to sex, grades, and scoliosis curve site.
Results shown here indicates that an early detection and early exercise for scoliosis can result in decreased the Cobb's angle in elementary school children.
