The Effect of Acute Phase Treatment Approaches on Creatine Kinase and the Musculoskeletal System in Different Types of Burns

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.

About this study

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.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • the study were being aged between 18-65 years and having different burn types, and flame, scald, and electrical burns were included in the study.
  • The burn percentage and mortality percentage were calculated, and patients with a burn percentage of less than fifty percent were included.

Exclusion criteria

  • the study were having a systemic disease, having substance abuse, and having a burn percentage of more than fifty percent.

Treatment and study plan

universal goniometer. evaluate the circumference measurement. The biochemical examination of CK (creatine kinase)

Other

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.

Primary outcomes

  1. universal goniometer

    Time frame: three weeks

    Universal goniometer was used to measure arm flexion movement.

  2. A tape measure with a width of 7 mm

    Time frame: three weeks

    Anthropometric measurement (arm circumference measurement) was made with a tape measure of 7 mm width.

  3. The biochemical examination of CK (creatine kinase)

    Time frame: three weeks

    Creatine kinase concentration in the blood was evaluated.
