Abstract
Burns are known as one of the most important causes of mortality in burn patients [1-6]. Adoption of appropriate diagnostic and treatment processes can lead to reducing the death rate of burn patients. Improperly management of burns victims can lead to physical abnormalities, psycho-social challenges, multiple surgeries, amputations, and functional disorders [7-17]. However, there is a perceived need for better, more precise, and longer rehabilitation due to the rising number of burn survivors. The process requires the collaboration of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, sports physiologists, nurses, and doctors from different fields [18]. Also, burn patient rehabilitation includes the management of positioning and orthosis, scar treatment, exercise prescription, education, and the management of symptoms that hinder function [19]. Rehabilitation difficulties include disparities in access to care, treatment techniques, and results in health care for different racial and ethnic groups at all levels of care [20]. However, according to a study, most questioned clinicians used exercise to rehabilitate patients after burn injuries, indicating high acceptance of various rehabilitation programs [21]. Hence, tele-rehabilitation refers to various approaches frequently made available through technology [22].
