To evaluate the relationship between cardiopulmonary performance and the degree of spinal deformity in pediatric patients with idiopathic scoliosis.
Assessed cardiac and pulmonary function in pediatric patients diagnosed with thoracic-dominant idiopathic scoliosis across varying degrees of spinal curvature.
Pulmonary and cardiac functional measures demonstrated significant negative correlation with the degree of spinal curvature in thoracic-dominant scoliosis.
Myocardial diastolic function exhibited potential impairment specifically among patients with the most severe spinal deformities.
