Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate which is more effective pulsed electromagnetic field therapy or whole-body vibration on quadriceps strength after chronic burn

Conditions

  • Pulsed Electromagnetic Field
  • Whole Body Vibration
  • Burns

Interventions

DEVICE

whole body vibration using crazy fit machine

It will be applied on the whole body All subjects will be asked to stand in a squat position on the vibration platform with the knees bent 90 this position will be chosen because the vertical sinusoidal accelerations of the vibration platform had to be damped by the different muscles around the joints of the lower extremity) ,at a frequency of 30 Hz, 5 - 30 minutes per day, 3 times per week, for 6 weeks, and the physiotherapist will be standing beside the patient

DEVICE

Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy

EMSCULPT device (BTL Industries Inc., Boston, MA) based on HIFEM technology. It consists of an appliance, motorized bed and solenoids. The appliance will be connected to electrical mains supplying230Vat frequency of 50 or 60 Hz with earth connection, Intensity 0-100. It will be used in the treatment of patient in group "B". Subjects will be positioned in a supine position, and the treatment will be performed by placing the applicator centered over their thigh region (quadriceps muscle's area), for 15 minutes per day, 3 times per week for 6 weeks, the physiotherapist will be sitting beside the patient

OTHER

traditional physical therapy program

In the form of splinting, stretching exercises, strengthening exercises and range of motion (ROM) exercises on quadriceps muscle 15 minutes per day, 3 times per week for 6 weeks.
