AB  - PURPOSE: Pulmonary function (PF) is compromised in some individuals following 
      burn, which may result in impaired aerobic capacity. Exercise training improves 
      PF and exercise capacity in children recovering from burns, yet it is unknown if 
      adults will demonstrate the same response. PROCEDURES: 9 burn injured 
      participants (%TBSA 42 +/-18.38, 6.56 years +/-3.68 post injury) and 9 matched 
      controls participated in a 12-week goal directed interval training and resistance 
      exercise programme. PF was measured using spirometry, and a graded exercise test 
      quantified peak oxygen consumption (Vo(2peak)), both prior to and following the 
      exercise training. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure assessed the 
      participant's goal attainment. RESULTS: Burn injured participants had 
      significantly lower PF (FEV(1)/FVC ratio) than the healthy controls both prior to 
      and following the exercise intervention (F(1,16)=8.93, p=0.009). Exercise 
      training did not improve PF in either group, however both groups had a 
      significant improvement in their Vo(2peak), maximal minute ventilation, and work 
      achieved on a graded exercise test (F(1,16)=19.325, p<0.001), (F(1,16)=51.417, 
      p<0.001) and (F(1,16)=36.938, p<0.001), respectively, following the exercise 
      training. All participants achieved their occupational performance goals. 
      CONCLUSION: Although the exercise training did not alter PF, both aerobic 
      capacity and occupational performance were improved.
