Detailed Description

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

Patients with burns can face challenges throughout their recovery, including contractures and a reduced range of motion (ROM) in the upper limb (UL), upper and lower limb impairment. Restoring range of motion, muscle strength, and mobility is essential to reduce scarring formation and contractures. The study included 17 patients with unilateral or bilateral superficial, deep partial and full thickness burns to the upper limbs, with or without burns to the upper body, covering 10% or more of the total body surface area
