Enhanced vestibular-evoked balance responses in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis

Jean-Philippe Cyr, Roxane Crépin, Pierre Mercier, Jean‐Sébastien Blouin et autres

We tested the hypothesis that adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients exhibit asymmetries in the vestibular control of balance. We observed larger vestibular-evoked balance responses in participants with AIS to stimuli targeting primary vestibular afferents unilaterally and bilaterally. These larger balance-correcting responses of …
