CHAPTER26 Occupational and physiotherapy
Occupational therapy
Burns as a specialty demands occupational therapy skills and experience drawn from a variety of clinical areas, ranging from musculoskeletal through to mental health, and covers both in- patient and out- patient care simultan­eously. As part of the wider burns MDT, the occupational therapist is in­volved in the treatment of a patient from injury through to scar maturation, or until adulthood in the case of paediatric patients.
The core values and beliefs of occupational therapy are epitomized within the eld of burns. Patient treatment is based upon a wide range of dierent methods and theories focused around a biopsychosocial model, where promoting independence and enhancing function is the central aim of therapeutic engagement. The diversity of injury and the subsequent con­sequences that can aect the patient are wide- ranging. Therefore, a unique approach to each patient to address their needs, encourage function and ultimately full realistic goals as individuals is key.

CHAPTER26 Occupational and physiotherapy
The occupational therapy role
Occupational therapy begins on admission to a burn ward or intensive care, and continues long after discharge. Most of the treatment modalities em­ployed are used within both in- patient and out- patient care.
Treatments and interventions:
• Splinting
• To prevent joint/ soft tissue and scar contractures
• Protect graft sites
• Increase range of movement (ROM)
• Improve function
• Compensatory movement splints to encourage or allow normal movement including dynamic splinting
• Positioning
• To prevent graft/ scar contractures
• Functional rehabilitation
• Aim to increase independence in activities of daily living (ADLs)
• ROM and strengthening exercises centred around activity, eg. facilitating ADLs, workshop, play
• Graded activity including some assisted activity
• Use of some compensatory techniques either temporary or permanent, eg adapted cutlery, custom- made adaptations
• Specialized upper limb rehab using task simulation equipment
• Mental and cognitive stimulation activities to enhance mood and thought processes
• Wheelchair assessment and provision
• Discharge planning
• Identication of appropriate discharge destination
• Equipment provision and minor adaptations to home
• Home visits
• Liaison with social worker and identication of care needs.
• Social re- integration, life readjustment, and psychological support, eg.
supporting and facilitating leaving safe ward environment, and coping with reactions to injury
• Scar management— to begin as soon as clinically possible to gain
optimum results
• Encourage normal movement and use of body to minimize contractures
• Application of pressure garments
• Use of silicone gels and conformers
• Massage
• Splinting:to prevent contracture, stretch existing scar, or serial splinting
• Cosmetic camouage
• Referral onto other agencies, eg. orthotics, maxillofacial
• Outreach

THE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY ROLE
• Return to work/ life roles
• Includes heavy rehabilitation programmes as an out- patient
• Work place/ school visits
• Liaising with employers and schools to ensure correct levels of support are in place to maximize patient independence and encourage job retention
• Support with redeployment where necessary
• Referral onto relevant external agencies

CHAPTER26 Occupational and physiotherapy
Physiotherapy
The survival rate of major burns has improved with recent advances in care resulting in more complex rehabilitation needs. All burns, irrespective of severity, have the potential to aect people physically and emotionally and the physiotherapists’ role within the multidisciplinary team is to ensure as good an outcome as possible in terms of movement, strength, function, and aesthetics.
The physiotherapist will be involved with the burn- injured patient both as an inpatient and an outpatient and will address the following aspects of care as applicable to individual patient’s needs.
This chapter has been written in accordance with the British Burns Association Therapy Standards1 and it is assumed that individuals will work within the boundaries of their professional body and knowledge. It is im­perative that burns patients are managed by experienced therapists who are regularly involved in the care of these patients.
• The aims of physiotherapy intervention are to
• Maintain respiratory function
• Manage oedema
• Assist in management of pain, itch and sensation
• Maintain joint range of motion
• Maintain cardiovascular tness/ strength
• Aid functional independence
• Scarring
• Provide psychological support
The extent of physiotherapy intervention that is required is dependent upon the extent/ depth of the injury, the surgery required and patients’ individual needs.
For a greater depth of understanding of the physiotherapists role within the care of the burn- injured patient the British Burns Association Therapy Standards1 can be reviewed.

CHAPTER26 Occupational and physiotherapy
The physiotherapy role
Respiratory function
• The aims of physiotherapy interventions are to
• Maintain clear airways
• Remove excess secretions
• Improve gaseous exchange
• Prevent and treat atelectasis
• Physiotherapeutic interventions to aid respiratory function are
• Education
• Mobility
• Breathing exercises
• Chest manual techniques
• Humidication of oxygen
• Suction via a nasal or oral airway
• Positioning to aid drainage and/ or gaseous exchange
• Continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP)
• Intermittent positive pressure breathing (IPPB)
• Tracheostomy management
Manage oedema
Oedema control will prevent later complications of soft tissue adherence and loss of joint range of motion. This is especially important with hand burns but applies to all areas of the body. Techniques that aid oedema control are
• Elevation
• Positioning
• Massage
• Compression
• Active exercise
Assist inmanagement ofpain, itch, and sensation
Pain can be a signicant issue during physiotherapy treatment sessions for a burn- injured patient. Analgesia is crucial to promote patient involvement and compliance. In addition to pharmacological management the physio­therapist can assist in pain control and later both itch and sensory disturb­ance can be addressed with therapy interventions.
Techniques that aid management of pain, itch and sensation are:
• Entonox
• Education, reassurance and distraction
• Splinting
• Exercise
• Massage
• Sensory re- education/ desensitization

THE PHYSIOTHERAPY ROLE
Maintain joint range ofmotion
Skin contractures at specic anatomical sites are inevitable following burn injury, eg. anterior/ posterior axillary folds. The physiotherapist will use therapy interventions to limit these skin contractures and prevent them developing into joint contractures where the joint structures (capsule, liga­ments etc.) also become shortened and restrict joint range of motion.
Range of movement exercises are started as soon as possible following a
burn injury then adapted appropriately following surgical intervention.
Interventions
Positioning
The patient’s joints are positioned in anti- contracture postures between exercise sessions to maintain soft tissue length. This can be achieved using static splints or by advising on resting postures. It is important that the whole team, relatives, and the patient are aware of optimal positioning to maximize compliance.
Active exercises
This involves the patient actively moving their joints through full range of motion. Active motion is the ideal therapeutic intervention as it maintains soft tissue extensibility, maintains muscle strength, creates a muscle pump to reduce oedema, maintains normal sensory motor feedback, and promotes independence. An individual exercise programme should be developed for the specic needs of each patient.
Passive exercises
This involves the physiotherapist moving the patient’s joints through normal physiological range. This is necessary if the patient is ventilated or unable to exercise independently due to lack of strength/ nerve palsy/ compliance. It is useful for the physiotherapist to go into theatre when the patient is anaes­thetized so range of movement can be assessed and stretches performed without any distress to the patient.
Maintain cardiovascular tness/ strength
The longevity of burn care management plus the systemic eects of burn injury will cause a reduction in cardiovascular tness and strength. The physiotherapist will endeavour to maintain the patients’ tness and strength during the acute stages of their injury and regain their previous level of tness/ strength to as near normal as possible during the later stages of rehabilitation.
Techniques that aid cardiovascular tness/ strength are
• Mobility
• Active exercise
• Strengthening
• Optimization of cardio tness
• Education to patients and their family
• Resistive exercise
• Functional exercise
• Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation
