Surgical correction is the best way to prevent hypoxia in scoliosis, but whether pulmonary rehabilitation increases the effectiveness of scoliosis surgery has not yet been confirmed. Therefore, the aim of the study was to evaluate the function of respiratory muscles after surgical correction of idiopathic scoliosis. Methods: The study involved 24 patients, aged 13.6 \u00b1 0.6. Maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) were measured using the Mikro RPM. In all patients, before the procedure, 7 days after and 3 months after the procedure, the MIP and MEP were measured. Results: MIP was the lowest 7 days after the procedure; it was 45.28 cmH2O and was statistically significantly lower compared to the measurement before the procedure (p &lt; 0.001) and 3 months after the procedure (p &lt; 0.001). Conclusions: The degree of curvature of the spine before the procedure does not significantly affect initial values of the strength of respiratory muscles. The level of MIP is not dependent on the type of surgery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm11051305","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,27]],"date-time":"2022-02-27T20:47:17Z","timestamp":1645994837000},"page":"1305","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["The Influence of Surgical Correction of Idiopathic Scoliosis on the Function of Respiratory Muscles"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Barbara","family":"Jasiewicz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation, University Hospital of Orthopaedics Rehabilitation in Zakopane, Jagiellonian University Collegium Medicum, 31-008 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karina","family":"Ro\u017cek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Social Sciences and Public Health, Pedagogical University of Krakow, 30-084 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Piotr","family":"Kurzeja","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Health Sciences, Podhale State College of Applied Sciences, 34-400 Nowy Targ, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Edyta","family":"Daszkiewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation, University Hospital of Orthopaedics Rehabilitation in Zakopane, Jagiellonian University Collegium Medicum, 31-008 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3714-3676","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Katarzyna","family":"Ogrodzka-Ciechanowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Clinical Rehabilitation, Faculty of Motor Rehabilitation, University of Physical Education, 31-571 Krakow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"15030","DOI":"10.1038\/nrdp.2015.30","article-title":"Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis","volume":"1","author":"Cheng","year":"2015","journal-title":"Nat.
