Brief summary
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.
Detailed description
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.
Interventions
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.

Eligibility
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.
