Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The presentation of the expected outcome is that game therapy may be a viable tool in rehabilitation in burn patients in the acute phase compared to conventional physiotherapeutic treatment.;There was no significant difference in the intergroup variables, demonstrating that the therapeutic responses between the protocols were similar. The results of this study emphasize the importance of physiotherapy in burn patients to obtain functional and emotional gains, and game therapy is a resource with great therapeutic potential in the recovery of this patient profile.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The secondary outcome is to observe the effect of game therapy (Nintendo Wii sport) through instruments that assess maximum respiratory pressures, palmar pre-healing strength, functionality, cardiorespiratory fitness and anxiety / pain.;In the intra-group analysis of the studied variables, we observed in the group treated with Nintendo Wii sport (Gwii) a significant increase in MEP (p = 0.0226), right upper limb dynamometry (DMSD) (p = 0.0203), dynamometry (p = 0.0367), Functional Independence Measure - MIF (p = 0.0003) and (P = 0.0019), as well as a significant reduction in the level of anxiety and pain (p = 0.0323), whereas in the group treated with conventional physiotherapy (GFt) all variables studied had a significant improvement. However, in the assessments between the groups (intergroups), there was no significant difference in any of the studied variables.
