Status
Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
• Subjects: Sixty patients with lower limb burn, subdivided into two groups each one has 30 patients.
- Group (A) = Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy and quadriceps strengthening exercises group.
Group (B) = quadriceps strengthening exercises group. • Equipment and tools:
Measurements tools:
Isokinetic dynamometer : to measure the quadriceps muscle peak torque before the treatment and after 8 weeks of treatment for both groups.
- Therapeutic tools:
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy device and free weights for strengthening of quadriceps muscle.

---|---|
Experimental: Experimental group
- This group will be composed of 30 patients with lower limb burn of second-degree.
Subjects will receive pulsed magnetic field over thigh areas for 24 sessions over a period of 8 weeks (3sessions/week) with receiving strengthening exercises for quadriceps muscle and traditional physical therapy program in the form of range of motion exercise, stretching, splinting, massage, functional training for ambulation and activities of daily living.

the pulsed electromagnetic field device treatment parameters will be set as 15 Hz frequency, 20 gauss amplitude, and 20 minutes as total treatment duration.
• Parameters of the exercise program: Intensity : The weight or load the patients lifted is set at 50-60% of their individual 1RM , 3 sets of 10 repetitions during the first week. During the second week, the lifting load is increased to 70-75% (3 sets of 10 repetitions) of their individual 1RM and continued for weeks 2-6. After this, training intensity is increased to 80-85% of the 1 RM and implemented from weeks 7-8. Frequency: 3 sessions per week for 8 weeks. Number of repetitions: 3 sets,10 repetitions in each set. Total treatment duration: 8 weeks |
Active Comparator: control group
Subjects will receive strengthening exercises for quadriceps muscle and traditional physical therapy program in the form of range of motion exercise, stretching, splinting, massage, functional training for ambulation and activities of daily living for 24 sessions over a period of 8 weeks (3sessions/week)
