The NIDRR burn injury rehabilitation model system program: selected findings.

The NIDRR burn injury rehabilitation model system program: selected findings. The quality of burn care has improved over the past few decades, and consequently many more survivors with large-area burn injuries have long-term rehabilitation needs. The National Institute on Disability Rehabilitation Research recognized that the rehabilitation of people with burn injuries has been underaddressed and established model systems of care for this population in 1994. This special supplement to the Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation reports on some of the research that has been generated by the Burn Rehabilitation Model Systems over the past 13 years.
