Brief Summary

The purpose of the current study is to investigate the effect sensory motor training on foot weight distribution and postural stability in patients with foot burn.

Conditions

Burn; Postural Stability

Keywords

Sensory motor training; Foot weight distribution; Postural stability; Foot burn

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• The Pedoscan system

  It will be used to assess the foot weight distribution. Under the guidance of the evaluator, the subjects will stand with bare feet upon a part marked on the platform with eyes closed.

  "At baseline and after 8 weeks of intervention"

• The biodex balance system

  It will be used to assess the postural stability during assessment; participants will stand comfortably on the platform barefoot, with arms at their sides, for 30 seconds.

  "At baseline and after 8 weeks of intervention"

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• The Brief Burn Specific Health Scale-Brief

  "At baseline and after 8 weeks of intervention"

Study Arms (2)

Sensory-motor training group

EXPERIMENTAL

This group will include 35 patients with foot burns. Patients will receive sensorimotor training exercise in addition to a traditional physical therapy program in the form of stretching exercises, strengthening exercises and scar management. Exercises will be applied for 3 times a week for 8 consecutive weeks.

Other: Sensory motor training; Other: Traditional physical therapy

Traditional physical therapy group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This group will include 35 patients with foot burns. Patients will receive the traditional physical therapy program only in the form of stretching exercises, strengthening exercises and scar management. Exercises will be applied for 3 times a week for 8 consecutive weeks.

Other: Traditional physical therapy

Interventions

Sensory motor training OTHER

Each session will be composed of 10 minutes of warm-up, followed by 50-60 minutes of sensory motor exercises, followed by 5-10 minutes of cool down.
