What this trial studies

This observational study focuses on adolescent patients aged 12 to 20 who have been diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis and are awaiting surgical intervention. The research aims to identify predictive factors that may influence improvements in the quality of life following surgery. Participants will complete quality of life questionnaires to assess their experiences and outcomes post-surgery. The study is designed to gather insights that could enhance future treatment approaches for scoliosis in adolescents.
