Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to find the effectiveness of Virtual reality as an adjunctive to transverse friction massage in pediatric burn patients for reducing pain, anxiety and enhancing elbow range of motion.

Conditions

  • Burns Elbows
  • Pediatric ALL

Interventions

OTHER

Virtual Realty Training

They would be receiving treatment as follow: Virtual Reality is a technology that aims to completely immerse the user inside the computer generated world, giving the impression to the user that they have "stepped inside" the synthetic world. RA mobile phone , head mounted display (HMD) will be used and videos of patient's interest will be played on phone which will create a 3D world around the patient. And while watching conventional physical therapy will be performed side by side. Conventional PT including range of motion exercises of elbow region including flexion, extension, supination, pronation, stretching and strengthening exercises of elbow muscles. Frequency: 10 reps with 5 sec hold for 3 times/week for 2 weeks Intensity: moderate-high intensity (depending on pain tolerance) Time: 10 mins Type: Strengthening Exercises

OTHER

Transverse friction massage (TFM)

They would be receiving treatment as follow: Transverse friction massage (Soft tissue mobilization technique) on the surrounding burn region for 5-10min in intervals. Frequency: 3 times/week for 2 consecutive weeks. Intensity: moderate intensity (pain free) Time: 10 mins Conventional PT including range of motion exercises of elbow region including flexion, extension, supination, pronation, stretching and strengthening exercises of elbow muscles. Frequency: 10 reps with 5 sec hold for 3 times/week for 2 weeks Intensity: moderate-high intensity (depending on pain tolerance) Time: 10 mins Type: Strengthening Exercises
