简要总结
The purpose of the present study was to declare the difference between using immersive virtual reality vs passive virtual reality on pain management and improvement of ROM post physiotherapy exercise and mobilization sessions in pediatric burn patients.
详细描述
Burn injuries are devastating and cause long-term damage to health. Thermal injuries, caused by hot liquids, solids, or fire, account for the majority of these injuries. Around 11 million burn cases occur annually worldwide. Rehabilitation aims to improve joint range od motion and control pain. Nonpharmocologic strategies like hypnosis and VR systems have shown promise in pain control. Multidisciplinary interventions from psychologists, physiotherapists, and pain management specialists can contribute to patient recovery. VR offers a holistic care device for pediatric burn patients.

结局指标
主要结局
assessing the pain intensity using Colored Analog Scale (CAS)
时间窗: at baseline and after 6 weeks
The Colored Analog Scale (CAS) is a thermometer-like tool that gradually darkens red as you progress, allowing children to indicate their pain levels with markers on the scale's back.
assessing the range of motion using digital goniometer
时间窗: at baseline and after 6 weeks
The physical therapist will have to measure ROM before and after the intervention to monitor the improvement ,as the study focus on upper limb range of motion , following joints movement will be measured : shoulder flexion and abduction , elbow flexion and extension , wrist flexion and extension , forearm supination and pronation)
