Brief Summary

Burns are injuries that can have both local and systemic effects and are brought on by biological, chemical, electrical, and physical factors. Mobility is a significant problem for burn patients in terms of their quality of life since the burn injury affects their capacity to participate in activities of daily living. The immobility of the patient has a major impact on their physical health. The aim of current study was to compare between the effect of virtual reality and whole body vibration as two methods of proprioceptive stimulation on quadriceps strength and activity of daily living in children with burn.

Conditions

Whole Body Vibration; Virtual Reality

Keywords

Burn; proprioceptive stimulation; Whole body vibration; Virtual reality; Activity of daily living

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• quadriceps strength

  measurement of quadriceps power by Baseline Economy Mechanical Push/Pull

  2 months

• activities of daily living

  measurement od ADL by Physical Self Maintenance Scale. the score is 1 and zero the better score is 1

  2 MONTHS

Interventions

whole bady vibration and virtual reality DEVICE

study group I received a whole body vibration program in addition to a conventional physical therapy program, and study group II received a Wii-fit therapy program (a virtual reality treatment program) in addition to the same. A two-month treatment program was implemented for both groups. Every child in both groups had the same evaluation processes, which included using the Physical Self Maintenance Scale (PSMS) for daily living activities and a dynamometer to measure quadriceps muscular strength. Evaluation was done prior to the start of treatment and was done again after one month (post I) and two months (post II).
