Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Physical fitness - Cardiorespiratory endurance, expressed as VO2peak (ml/min) and relative for weight (ml/kg/min) Physical activity - Daily activity, expressed as activity counts	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Physical fitness - Cardiovascular endurance * HRpeak * %HR01 and %HR02 * WRpeak - Muscular strength * Force (Newton) per muscle group - Flexibility * Range of motion (degrees) per movement - Body composition * BMI (kg/m2) * Percentage fat mass Physical activity * Score on questionnaire 'Beweeggedrag' Health-Related Quality of life * Score on Dutch version of Burn Outcome Questionnaire * Score on the PedsQL Multidimensional Fatigue Scale Relevant demographic information, burn and treatment characteristics will be mainly acquired from patient files in the cooperating burn centers/hospitals and replenished from the questionnaires. Use of medication, as well as medical background, will be asked for beforehand, using the Exercise Preparticipation Screening.	—
