Conditions

Elderly patients with burns. Burn of second degree of wrist and hand

Interventions

Intervention 1: In the intervention group, elderly burn patients perform exercise routines twice daily using the Kinect device. This device utilizes 3D cameras and motion sensors to simulate and measu

Burns less than 25% of body surface area and only second-degree burns on extremities. Less than 72 hours since the occurrence of the burn. Not self-inflicted (no self-burns). No other injuries apart from burns.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients who are unwilling to continue participating in the study. Patients who experience severe pain in other areas of the body. Patients who develop unmanageable or critical conditions during the study

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The range of motion of the upper limbs will be measured using the program embedded in Kinect. Timepoint: Measurements will be taken immediately after the intervention (end of the exercise program), daily, and at specific intervals thereafter, specifically at 1 week and 2 weeks after the intervention. Method of measurement: The Kinect program uses 3D cameras and motion sensors to simulate and measure body and limb movements. This program can accurately measure the range of motion of the upper limbs and provide detailed reports on the range of movements. For measurements to be performed, the participant must be within the Kinect’s field and perform specific movements so that the program can record and analyze the range of motion.;Measurement of anxiety related to pain in burn patients using the abbreviated Burn-Specific Pain Anxiety Scale (BSPAS) is a validated tool for assessing pain-related anxiety in burn patients. Timepoint: Measurements will be taken at the beginning of the study (before the intervention starts), immediately after the intervention (at the end of the exercise period), and also at specified intervals thereafter, namely 1 week and 2 weeks after the end of the intervention. Method of measurement: The Burn-Specific Pain Anxiety Scale (BSPAS) is a validated tool for measuring pain-related anxiety in burn patients. This scale consists of 6 items that assess various aspects of anxiety associated with pain. The tool is used by asking patients about their experiences and feelings related to pain, and evaluating their responses based on the specified scale.;Pain intensity is measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The NRS allows patients to describe the intensity of their pain by choosing a number from 0 to 10, where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents the worst possible pain. Timepoint: Before the intervention, at the end of daily exercise sessions, and one and two weeks after the start of the rehabilitation exercises. Method of measurement: Pati
