Resumo(s)
Introdução: A escoliose idiopática do adolescente (EIA) é uma deformidade vertebral tridimensional com etiologia desconhecida, afetando sobretudo raparigas adolescentes.
Objetivo: Avaliar os efeitos a longo prazo do método Schroth no tratamento conservador da EIA.
Metodologia: Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática da literatura nas bases de dados PubMed, PEDro, Web of Science e Google Scholar, entre 1 e 15 de maio de 2025. Foram incluídos ensaios clínicos randomizados que aplicaram o método Schroth por um período igual ou superior a seis meses.
Resultados: Quatro estudos com 248 adolescentes foram incluídos. Os programas que combinavam supervisão regular e exercícios domiciliários mostraram melhorias significativas no ângulo de Cobb, resistência muscular, imagem corporal e qualidade de vida. Estudos com menor supervisão revelaram resultados menos consistentes.
Conclusão: O método Schroth parece ser eficaz a longo prazo na gestão da EIA, especialmente quando implementado de forma estruturada e supervisionada. São necessários mais estudos com maior rigor metodológico para consolidar a evidência existente.
Introduction: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional spinal deformity of unknown etiology, primarily affecting adolescent girls. Objective: To assess the long-term effects of the Schroth method in the conservative treatment of AIS. Methodology: A systematic literature review was conducted in the PubMed, PEDro, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases between May 1 and 15, 2025. Randomized clinical trials that applied the Schroth method for a period of six months or more were included. Results: Four studies involving 248 adolescents were included. Programs combining regular supervision and home-based exercises showed significant improvements in Cobb angle, muscle endurance, body image, and quality of life. Studies with less supervision showed less consistent results. Conclusion: The Schroth method appears to be effective in the long-term management of AIS, especially when implemented in a structured and supervised manner. Further studies with higher methodological rigor are needed to strengthen the existing evidence.
