Objectives
To investigate the effects of the Wii Fit rehabilitation program in addition to a standard physical therapy program (SPTP) on lower extremity functional status and functional mobility in adults with severe burns after hospital discharge. Design A single-blinded, parallel groups, randomized controlled trial. Settings Outpatient rehabilitation center. Participants Thirty-four patients (N=34), aged 31.3±7.3 years old, with lower extremity deep partial-thickness and full-thickness burn and total body surface area of more than 40% were allocated randomly into 2 equal groups. Interventions The Wii Fit group received the Wii Fit program for 30 minutes in addition to SPTP for 60 minutes, whereas the SPTP group received SPTP only. The intervention was 3 sessions a week for 12 weeks. Main Outcome Measures The primary outcome measurements were the functional status and functional mobility, which were assessed by the high mobility assessment tool, Lower Limb Functional Index, and timed Up and Go test. The secondary outcomes included exercise capacity, muscle strength, and balance measured by the 6-minute walk test, isokinetic muscle strength assessment, and stability index. All the outcome measures were collected at the baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention. Results After 12 weeks of intervention, there were statistically significant differences between groups in all outcome measures in favor of the Wii Fit group (P<.001 also statistically significant differences were found in all the measured outcomes after weeks of intervention each group> Conclusions Patients with lower extremity burns who received the Wii Fit program in addition to the SPTP had better improvements in lower limb functional status, functional mobility, exercise capacity, muscle strength, and balance than patients who received SPTP alone. The Wii Fit program was a useful adjunctive therapy in rehabilitating adults with lower extremity burn injury. |
