About this study

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the difference between resistance training with and without venous occlusion on hand strength and function post hand burn.

This study will be designed to evaluate the difference between resistance training with and without venous occlusion on hand strength and function post hand burn.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients of all age groups and both sexes having less than sixty percent TBSA thermal burns and involves the hand.
  • Patients with second-degree (superficial or deep) burn on the hand.
  • Patients with third-degree burns
  • Patients with complete wound healing
  • Patients without any defects at tendons
  • Patients without burning at cubital fossa (cuff placement)
  • participants were required to have a resting (systolic and diastolic) blood pressure of <140/90 mmHg and a resting heart rate of <90 bpm
  • A decreased grip strength.
  • Patients without cognitive impairments and actively cooperating with treatment and measurements

Exclusion criteria

  • Any patient who has previous injury or congenital deformity of the hand with restricted hand function.
  • Resting systolic BP (BP) <140 mmHg and/or diastolic BP< 90 mmHg
  • Self-reported cardiovascular, metabolic, or pulmonary conditions or signs and symptoms suggestive of these diseases
  • Associated injuries affecting participation in exercise training, including fracture, amputation, acquired brain injury or peripheral neural injury or any pre-existing medical condition which may affect exercise participation.
  • patients that had fourth degree burns
  • patients that had first degree burns
  • Patients with burn at cubital fossa (cuff placement)
  • Patients without complete wound healing
  • patient who is taking medications that affect hemodynamic responses
  • Patients with severe hand burns leading to muscle and tendon damage, or those who have undergone finger amputation surgery
  • Patients who were not compliant for following up for at least once a month following discharge from hospital.

Treatment and study plan

resistance exercise with venous occlusion

Other

patients with hand burn who will receive conventional treatment for burn which included: positioning, range of motion, stretch, joint mobilization and strength exercise for hand grip for 3 days per week for 4 weeks

traditional resistance exercises

Other

This group will include 17 patients with hand burn who will receive conventional treatment for burn which included: positioning, range of motion, stretch, joint mobilization and strength exercise for hand grip for 3 days per week for 4 weeks

Primary outcomes

  1. hand grip strength

    Time frame: twice first before beginning treatment from day 1 of treatment second after complete treatment after 1 month Assessment will be for 1 minute For assessment hand grip strength

    Hand grip will be assessed by digital Hand Dynamometer

Secondary outcomes

  1. upper limb function

    Time frame: twice first pre treatment at 1 day for almost 5 minutes to assess all functions of upper limb function second after complete treatment after 1 month to assess upper limb function after treatment for 5 minutes

    Function of hand will be assessed by quick disabilities of arm, shoulder and hand questionnaire which asks patient about symptoms as well as ability to perform certain activities This scale which which assess upper limb function and high score means high disability and bad results and low score means low disability and good results
