Burn Patient Acuity Demographics, Scar Contractures and Rehabilitation Treatment Time Related to Patient Outcomes (ACT)

Abstract

The third year of the ACT proved to be a turning point for the burn rehabilitation study. During this past year, patient screening and subject enrollment with subsequent data collections began at seven participating facilities. Processes to support the ACT in terms of individual site contracts, protocol submission and training progressed forward. No major impediments were encountered. The ACT continues on course to become a most formidable research project contributing to improvement in the knowledge and understanding of how best to optimize patient outcomes in the future.
