There are very few studies indicating the effect of acute phase treatment approaches on creatine kinase and the musculoskeletal system in the physiotherapy and rehabilitation process. Rehabilitation in burn patients is a benchmark due to return to pre-burn life. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of acute phase treatment approaches on creatine kinase and the musculoskeletal system in different types of burns.
In the literature, there are very few objective and quantitative studies comparing the effects of standard wound care and rehabilitation period on different burn types in burn patients. Thus, our study was designed to investigate the effects of acute phase treatment approaches on creatine kinase and the musculoskeletal system in different types of burns.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
37
The joint range of motion within the affected areas of burn patients was assessed by a universal goniometer. A 7-mm-wide tape measure was used to evaluate circumference measurement in individuals. The biochemical analysis of CK (creatine kinase) was performed by an expert on blood samples taken from patients in the hospital laboratories.
