Summary
The overarching goal for this prospective randomized controlled trial (PRCT) is to determine whether a virtual-environment, home-rehabilitation program improves functional outcomes for individuals after a burn injury. Specifically, this study will test the efficacy of a technology-assisted rehabilitation program against current standard of home therapy.
Detailed description
This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial (PRCT) involving 50 adult burn survivors. This study tests the efficacy of a technology-assisted rehabilitation program against current standard of home therapy. There are two study groups for which subjects will be randomized: control and experimental.The control group will receive treatment as usual, which includes a personalized home exercise program prescribed by a burn therapist, prior to hospital discharge. The experimental group receives treatment as usual, in addition to training and use of the Jintronix platform for 3 months after hospital discharge. Participants will undergo their prescribed therapy regimen for 3 months, with outcomes follow-up to 12 months post-discharge.
Conditions
Interventions
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BEHAVIORAL | Technology-assisted rehabilitation | The Jintronix software platform, coupled with the Microsoft Kinect for movement capture, contains individualized exercise modules to increase ROM, endurance and strength. Within this PRCT, online monitoring of activity and actigraphy measurements through a wearable device and completion of an online diary will provide enhanced monitoring of home activities. |
| BEHAVIORAL | Usual care | The control group will receive treatment as usual, which includes a personalized home exercise program prescribed by a burn therapist, prior to hospital discharge. |
