Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare tele-rehabilitation and routine post-discharge rehabilitation in children with burn injuries. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is tele-rehabilitation better for improving the quality and outcomes of care for burn children? * Is tele-rehabilitation more effective in improving scar management in children with burns injuries? * Is tele-rehabilitation more effective in improving perceived stress in parents of children with burns injuries?

Detailed description

In this study, experimental group received a 12-week tele-rehabilitation program, which included face-to-face access to silicone pads, pressure garments, splint and other tools necessary for burn recovery. The tele-rehabilitation program was used for intervention and regular follow-up. The control group also received a 12-week follow-up, but only on the basis of face-to-face access to silicone pads, pressure garments, splint and other tools necessary for burn recovery. Researchers will compare whether the trial group has better the quality and outcomes of care and scarring for children and parents who perceived stress.
