Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The outcome measures included quadriceps muscle strength as measured using an isokinetic dynamometer, LBM is measured by DEXA and cardiopulmonary fitness was assessed by measuring VO2 peak during a standardized treadmill exercise test using the modified Bruce protocol. All outcome measures were evaluated immediately after discharge as baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Forty healed pediatric burn patients (24 boys and 16 girls), aged 10 - 15 years, were enrolled from the outpatient clinic in the faculty of physical therapy, Cairo university, Egypt. The inclusion criteria were: total body surface area (TBSA) of 40-60%, being ambulatory without an assistant. The exclusion criteria included metabolic disorders, neuropathy, visual or vestibular disorders, amputation, participation in another study, any adverse medication reactions, history of epilepsy, loss of balance, and lower or upper limb deformity. All patients received similar standard medical care and treatment from the time of admission until the time of discharge.

Total burn surface area was assessed by the "modified Lund and Browder charts" method during excisional surgery immediately following hospital admittance. Informed written consent was obtained from each patient's guardian prior to enrollment.

All procedures were approved by the ethical committee of the faculty of physical therapy, Cairo university, Giza, Egypt. After consent was obtained, patients were randomly assigned to standard of care group (SOC) or Xbox training group (Xbox).

The Xbox group participated in a 12-week of routine physiotherapy program supplemented with Xbox training program (N=20). In contrast, the SOC group participated in the routine physiotherapy program (N=20).

A normal activity of daily living (ADL), diet and patient's lifestyle were maintained for all participants as much as possible.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

FACTORIAL

The Xbox group participated in a 12-week of routine physiotherapy program supplemented with Xbox training program. The control group participated in the routine physiotherapy program.

In the study group received Xbox training, the dose of Xbox training was 50 min, three times a week for 12 weeks, using the Xbox gaming system. The games were anticipated onto a 45-inch Samsung television. The playing area was 16 \* 12 m. The content of Xbox training consisted of practicing five Xbox games (Rally Ball, Reﬂex Ridge, River Rush, 2000 Leaks and parkour). Children practiced each game for 10 min, bringing about every session enduring 50 min.

Xbox training group

The study group received Xbox training plus routine physical therapy protocol treatment. The dose of Xbox training was 50 min, three times a week for 12 weeks, using the Xbox gaming system (Xbox 360 Kinect console; Microsoft Inc., Redmond, Washington, USA).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Xbox training

Intervention Type OTHER

patients in this group received routine physical therapy protocol plus Xbox training.

Before the intervention started, the Xbox group was given a 45 min introductory session on how to use the xbox adventure games and its tools. All sessions were led by a single experienced physiotherapist (different to the physiotherapist who performed the assessments tests) in order to provide instruction on how to perform each exercise.

Control group

Intervention Type OTHER

routine physical therapy protocol (RPTP) including joint range of motion exercises (ROM), muscle stretching technique, splinting, daily walking, and ADL training.
