Summary
The diagnosis and treatment of scoliosis are some of the main issues of orthopaedics and physiotherapy. Scoliosis is a very frequent spine deformity in children. It has a detrimental effect on their development and life style. Therefore doctors and physiotherapists attempt to screen for early signs of deformity. The subsequent therapy can at least slow down the scoliosis progression.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the kinesiology analysis in preschool children who had undergone a paediatric check-up at the age of 5 years with normal results in posture. We tried to determine the number of children with the suspicion for scoliosis, scoliotic posture or other posture abnormalities.
We found that 25 % of the sample size of 60 children had positive Adam’s test results and therefore suspicion for scoliosis. The anamnesis questionnaires also showed that the average time spent sitting at a computer is statistically different between the groups with positive and negative Adam’s test results. The results indicate the negative impact of sitting at a computer on the quality of posture in preschool children.
Key words:
scoliosis, preschool children, Adam’s test, posture.
