Doctors and clinicians at New York Presbyterian Hospital/Weil Cornell Medical Center are using the Wii to help individuals with burns regain function.  Our very own Sam Yohannan PT is an expert in using video games for burn survivors.  Sam is conducting a year long study exploring the use of the Wii following burns and for burn rehabilitation. Sam will be assisting with the Games For Health Conference Rehab Day in Boston this May.  Do any of you use off-the-shelf devices for burn care and intervention?  If so, why don't you share some ideas and videos here so we can all learn about way to use video games for rehabilitation following burns!
