Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of Virtual Reality (VR) technology during Physical Therapy (PT) and/or Occupational Therapy (OT) for patients with burns. Research questions: Do patients have increased joint Range of Motion (ROM) and reduced pain when using VR during PT compared to PT/OT when VR is not used? Do scores on an imaging ability scale correlate with the effects of VR when used with PT/OT? Do adults and children differ in their ability to engage in the virtual world?
