[Purpose] This study compared the effects of Swiss ball exercise and resistance exercise on the respiratory function and trunk control ability of patients with scoliosis. [Subjects] Forty scoliosis patients were randomly divided into the Swiss ball exercise group (n= 20) and resistance exercise group (n = 20). [Methods] The Swiss ball and resistance exercise groups performed chest expansion and breathing exercises with a Swiss ball and a therapist's resistance, respectively. Both groups received training 30 min per day, 5 times per week for 8 weeks. [Results] Both groups exhibited significant changes in forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second, and trunk impairment scale after the intervention. However, there was no significant change in the forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity ratio after the intervention in either group. Meanwhile, forced expiratory volume in one second and trunk impairment scale were significantly greater in the resistance exercise group after the intervention. [Conclusion] Both Swiss ball exercise and resistance exercise are effective for improving the respiratory function and trunk control ability of patients with scoliosis. However, resistance exercise is more effective for increasing the forced expiratory volume in one second and trunk control ability.
[目的] 本研究比较了瑞士球运动和抗阻运动对脊柱侧弯患者呼吸功能和躯干控制能力的影响。[对象] 40例脊柱侧弯患者被随机分为瑞士球运动组（n = 20）和抗阻运动组（n = 20）。[方法] 瑞士球运动组和抗阻运动组分别使用瑞士球并在治疗师的助力下进行扩胸和呼吸练习。两组均每天训练30分钟，每周训练5次，共训练8周。[结果] 干预后，两组的用力肺活量、一秒用力呼气量和躯干功能障碍量表均有显著变化。然而，两组干预后一秒用力呼气量/用力肺活量比值均无显著变化。同时，干预后抗阻运动组的一秒用力呼气量和躯干功能障碍量表显著更高。[结论] 瑞士球运动和抗阻运动均能有效改善脊柱侧弯患者的呼吸功能和躯干控制能力。然而，抗阻运动在增加一秒用力呼气量和躯干控制能力方面更有效。
