Contrary to our hypotheses, the BBS and PASS performed equally well in our study sample and were best at predicting patients discharged in the slowest GV category. There were few differences between the PASS subscores. Further research should compare how well admission BBS and PASS predict gait velocity, falls, and other functional parameters in the community after IRU discharge.

The Wii may be a feasible and valuable adjunct to traditional therapy. Improvements during the series with Wii were demonstrated for areas of balance and functional mobility. Trends toward improvement in motivation and interest with the Wii suggest its use may elicit increased patient engagement during burn rehabilitation.
