Jump exercises for leg function after burn
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether special jump exercises (called plyometrics) can improve leg function and knee movement in children who have healed from burns. If your child has limited knee movement from a burn, these exercises might help them move better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child is between 7 and 15 years old
- Burn is on the back of the leg (hamstring) and has healed (second degree)
- Burn size is between 3% and 10% of the body
- Knee movement is limited because of the burn
- No other serious medical conditions (like broken bones, heart disease, or mental health issues)
