Fatigue is a major barrier to recovery for burned individuals. Studies indicate
that a slow return to normal or near-normal muscle strength is the natural course
of recovery. With no special interventions, other than the "usual care" tailored
to the needs of the individual, postburn patients will make gradual improvement
in strength and aerobic capacity. Using the principle of initial condition (the
worse the initial condition, the greater the response to exercise intervention)
the authors outline an augmented exercise program that should result in a robust
improvement in aerobic capacity.
