본 연구는 초등학생, 중학생, 고등학생 및 대학생 등 청소년 2,787명을 대상으로 100㎜ Mirror Camera을 이용하여 Cobb's Angle이 10°이상인 특발성 척추 측만증 이상자의 유병율을 성별과 연령별로 분석하였다.
연구 결과 Cobb's Angle이 10°이상으로 특발성 척추 측만증인 자는 전체 2.787명 중 257명(9.2%)이었으며, 13세 이하(초등학생)가 132명, 16세 이하(중학생)가 52명, 18세 이하(고등학생)가 35명, 19세 이상(대학생)이 38명이었고, 연령 따른 1차 검사에서의 x²-test 분석결과 유의성이 없는 것으로 나타났으며, Cobb's Angle이 10°이상인 대상자들의 측만발생 부위는 흉-요추부 147명(57.2%), 흉추부 81명(31.5%), 경-흉추부위 20명(7.8%), 요추부위 7명(2.7%), 경추부위 2명(0.8%)으로 흉-요추부위에서 가장 많은 빈도를 보였으며, 측만방향으로는 우측 183명(71.2%)으로 좌측 74명(28.8%)보다 높게 나타났다.
척추 측만증이 10°이상인 대상자 중에서 주요 호소 부위는 느끼지 못함이 219명이었으며, 요추부위 18명, 경추부위 9명, 흉추부위 7명, 견부부위 2명, 골반부위와 온몸이 다 아프다고 한 대상자는 각각 1명으로 총 257명이었고, 척추 측만증이 있는 자와 대상자의 주요 호소증상간의 분산분석의 결과는 유의성이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this Study was to investigate the prevalence rate of idiopathic scoliosis to the students from theelementary to the university in S city of Chung-Nam using 100㎜ Mirror Camera radiation indirect examination units, withon agerangeof between eight and thirteen (1.526 subjects), fourteen and sixteen (462 subjects), seventeen and eighteen (291 subjects), nineteen and twenty four (508 subjects) and total of 2,787 participants with the 590male subjects and 2,197 female subjects.
The results of this study can be summarized and compared the primary examination with the secondary test of greater than 10°of Cobb's Angle were obtained as follows;
1. Indirect Examination were conducted to find idiopathic scoliosis amomg total 2.787subjects, 257 subjects (9.2%) who showed positive sign greater than 10°in the Cobb's Angle ; below age of thirteen (132 subjects), between fourteen and sixteen (52 subjects), seventeen and eighteen (35 subjects), nineteen and twenty four (38 subjects).
The x²-test analysis of Indirect Examination showed no statistical significant difference association between the age range and 10°Cobb's Angle of spinal curve(P＞0.059).
2. The numbers of idiopathic scoliosis of greater than 10°Cobb's Angle of spinal curve in the primary examination were observed in 147 subjects (57.2%) at the Thoracolumbar region, 81subjects (31.5%) at the Thoracic region, 20 subjects (7.8%) at the Cervicothoracic region, 7subjects (2.7%) at the Lumbar region, 2 subjects (0.8%) at the Cervical region.
So, the large numbers were Thoracolumbar region, 183participants (71.2%) showed the right side curve of scoliosis and 74participant (28.8%) showed the left side curve of scoliosis.
3. The main region of the pain in one's own self more than 10°Cobb's angle of spinal curve were no pain 219subjects (85.2%), 18subjects (7.0%) at the Lumbar region, 9subjects (3.5%) at the Cervical region, 7 subjects (2.7%) at the Thoracic region, 2 subjects (0.7%) at the shoulder girdle region, 1subjects (0.39%) at the pelvis and whole body region.
There was statistical significant difference association between the Cobb's Angle of spinal curve and the main pain region of one's (P＜0.006).
This study may be significant to an early stage investigate of the prevalence rate of idiopathic scoliosis in the juveniles using 100㎜ Mirror Camera radiation indirect examination units.
The results of this study help that the students in a stage on growth the basis of data early discovery and therapy of idiopathic scoliosis.
