Summary

Inhalation burn injury and lung complications caused by large surface burns occurring during a fire remains a serious problem. Pulmonary rehabilitation has been used successfully to improve pulmonary function(PF) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. But there were no studies that pulmonary rehabilitation induce improvements in PF in patient with large surface burn and inhalation injury.

The investigators will performe pulmonary function and respiratory muscles strength evaluation in 40 patients with thermal injury in order to evaluate the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation in patients with thermally injury.

Conditions

  • Inhalation Injury
  • Pulmonary Disease

Interventions

OTHER

pulmonary rehabilitation

Pulmonary rehabilitation programs were designed to include both 30 minutes resistance and 30 minutes aerobic exercises. Eight basic resistnace exercises were used incorporating, bench press, leg press, leg curl, leg extension, toe raises, biceps curl, triceps curl, shoulder press. Additionally each exercise training session also included aerobic conditioning exercises ona treadmill or cycle ergometer. Aerobic exercise training was carried out 5 days per week, with each session lasting 30 minutes. All exercise sessions were preceded by a 5-minutes warm up period on a treadmill set.
