Abstract
Background: Burn is a very serious problem having high morbidity and mortality rate. Severe burns affect every organ system in the body. Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of aerobic exercise on immune system in post burned children . Subjects and methods: Thirty burned children (ages from 10 to15 y.) with immune disorder with burn less than 40% total body surface area(after one month of burn) chosen from Damanhour Teaching Hospital had been participated in this study. The patients were randomly divided into two groups of equal numbers. group A:(Study group) participated in a 12-week of aerobic exercise . group B:(Control group) participated in a 12-week of traditional exercise only (stretching ex, strengthing, range of motion and activity of daily living) three times per week for both groups. Measurements of Leukocytes and lymphocytes by lab analysis were collected before treatment and after 12- week of treatment. Results: There was a significant difference and increase in leukocytes and lymphocytes values (P<0.05) post treatment in group A compared to group B. The percentage of improvement of leukocytes and lymphocytes was 22.65% and 27.43%. respectively in group A, while the percentage of improvement of leukocytes and lymphocytes was 9.52% and 8.35 % respectively in group B. Conclusion: Immune function (leukocytes and lymphocytes) of pediatric patients post burn can significantly increase through participation in aerobic exercise program
