Methods 49 patients severe burned in lower extremity were randomly divided into observation group (n=25) and control group (n=24). The control group accepted routine rehabilitation, while the observation group accepted comprehensive rehabilitation. They were assessed with the range of motion (ROM) of knee flexion/extension, 45 m-walking, stair activity, Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and muscle strength 3 months after rehabilitation. Results The active and passive ROM of knee, stair activity, FIM score and muscle strength improved more in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05).
