Child and adolescent burn survivors benefit from skills to cope with the physical and mental challenges associated with their injuries. Burn camps can offer an opportunity to build these skills. In this study, we systematically review the best available evidence on burn camps in order to better assess their impact on burn survivors.
A systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A total of 815 articles on recreational therapeutic camps for burn survivors were retrieved from PubMed, PsycINFO, CINAHL and Scopus restricted to the English language and published before or by May 2018. Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) for Qualitative Studies Checklist and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Checklist for non-randomized experimental studies were used to assess the methodological rigour of the quantitative studies.
Quantitative data did not support any long-lasting impacts on psychosocial wellbeing. Qualitative data showed children, parents and staff all perceived benefits from camp attendance, including companionship and belonging.
Further research is required to understand the lack on congruence between qualitative and quantitative data. Qualitative data suggests burn camps are beneficial for children with burn injuries.
儿童和青少年烧伤幸存者从应对与受伤相关的身心挑战的技能中受益。烧伤夏令营可以提供一个建立这些技能的机会。在这项研究中,我们系统地回顾了有关烧伤夏令营的最佳现有证据,以便更好地评估它们对烧伤幸存者的影响。
根据系统评价和荟萃分析的首选报告项目(PRISMA)指南进行了系统评价。从 PubMed、PsycINFO、CINAHL 和 Scopus 中检索了 815 篇关于烧伤幸存者娱乐治疗夏令营的文章,这些文章均为英文,且发表于 2018 年 5 月之前或之前。使用批判性评估技能计划(CASP)定性研究检查表和乔安娜·布里格斯研究所(JBI)非随机实验研究的批判性评估检查表来评估定量研究的方法严谨性。
定量数据不支持对心理健康有任何持久影响。定性数据显示,儿童、父母和工作人员都认为参加夏令营有好处,包括陪伴和归属感。
需要进一步研究以了解定性和定量数据之间缺乏一致性的原因。定性数据表明,烧伤夏令营对烧伤儿童有益。
