Aim: - to investigate the effects of an aquatic exercise program in patients with severe scars Patient population: - 10 patients of at least 18 years old - patients with scars after burns or other severe skin injuries - stratification into two groups: an intervention group and a control group Method: - 8 patients will participate in the aquatic exercise group and 2 patients in the control group - assessment of physical fitness parameters, scar tissue and psychosocial impact Hypothesis: - patients of the aquatic exercise group will recover sooner and better (physically and psychologically) than patients of the control group


Clinical Trial Description

Intervention: - during 6 weeks patients will performed an aquatic exercise program (2 to 3 sessions a week) Assessment: - T0: post-hospitalisation status: body mass index, physical fitness, strength and respiratory function - T1: at baseline: body mass index, physical fitness, strength, respiratory function, exercise capacity, mobility, scar parameters and some questionnaires - T2: after 6 weeks training: same measurements as T1 - T3: 3 months after end of aquatic training: idem T1 - T4: 6 months after end of aquatic training: questionnaires - T5: 1 year after end of aquatic training: questionnaires ;
