Summary

PURPOSE: to assess the efficacy of Qigong exercise on bone mineral density in post-burned patient.

BACKGROUND: During severe burns, more than 7% of the vertebral bone mineral density (BMD) is lost within 3-6 weeks of the injury and about 3% of the total body bone content is lost during the first 6 months after the injury.

Qigong exercise has been shown to be effective at attenuating declines in BMD and improving both balance performance and balance confidence in healthy middle-aged and older adults.

There are lack in knowledge and information in published studies about the efficacy of Qigong exercise on bone mineral density in post-burned patient.

So, this study will be designed to provide a guideline about the efficacy of Qigong exercise on bone mineral density in post-burned patient.

HYPOTHESES:

It will be hypothesized that:

It was hypothesized that Qigong exercise has no or limited effect in bone mineral density in post-burned patient.

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does Qigong exercise an effect on bone mineral density in post-burned patient?

  • Burns

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Qigong exercise program

Qigong is a low-impact, weight-bearing exercise characterized by gentle movements designed to dissipate force throughout the body while the subject changes poses, with well-coordinated sequences of both isometric and isotonic segmental movements in the trunk and 4 extremities.
