Abstract
Methods Software and interfaces of a 3D input device were used to detect and measure smallest movements within a game scenario. To maintain motivation three different games were used. The study group were 20 children between 9 and 13 years old, with the diagnosis JIS (Cobb curve of 23° +/4°, bracing with Cheneau-braces). The children exercised six months according to the Schroth concept; two standardized exercises of this concept were carried out guided by the computer program. Data was recorded for each patient regarding exercises time and scores, exercise fault rates, stability, and mobility scores and selfefficacy scores. Correlations were calculated between different variables. Results Considering the changes of faults over time, it can be seen that the variable date had a highly-significant negative influence on mistakes in the x, y and zdirection. (P-value: 0.004978)
Highlights
The performance of daily exercises of patients with “juvenile idiopathic scoliosis” (JIS) during the homebased exercise period is difficult to monitor; the collection of evidence is a challenge

The available computer program for patients with JIS is suitable for evaluating therapeutic exercises
Summary
The performance of daily exercises of patients with “juvenile idiopathic scoliosis” (JIS) during the homebased exercise period is difficult to monitor; the collection of evidence is a challenge. Results Considering the changes of faults over time, it can be seen that the variable date had a highly-significant negative influence on mistakes in the x, y and z- direction. Aim The aim of this study was to use a specialised computer programme to guide, monitor and evaluate therapeutic exercises.
