Influência da freqüência de alongamento utilizando facilitação neuromuscular proprioceptiva na flexibilidade dos músculos isquiotibiais

Abstract: A utilização de manobras de alongamento é um dos recursos mais utilizados na prática de reabilitação. Porém, alguns parâmetros, como a freqüência, não têm sido estudados quando se utilizam as técnicas de facilitação neuromuscular proprioceptiva (FNP). O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a freqüência ótima visando aumentar a flexibilidade dos músculos isquiotibiais, medida pela amplitude ativa de extensão do joelho. Selecionaram-se 36 sujeitos do sexo feminino (média de idade (DP) de 21,7 (1,9) anos), com limi… Show more

“…A single researcher, who was blinded to group allocation, slowly performed continuous passive extensions of the knee to minimize possible reflexive interferences 19 , until the subject indicated a initial discomfort without pain 20 . The extensions were performed three times before and after the procedures 9,21 . Another 2m segment was added to the board and to the tripod used to support the digital camera.…”

“…Th e knee of the stretched limb was kept in complete extension with the ankle in a neutral position while the opposite limb was kept stabilized in extension by the researcher. Th is maneuver was performed three times 21 by each subject every day of the experiment, with 30 seconds intervals 19 . Th e subjects were submitted to this protocol once a day, fi ve times a week, for two weeks.…”

“…A redução da flexibilidade, principalmente em isquiotibiais, pode gerar desequilíbrio postural, déficit da ADM do joelho, do quadril e da coluna lombar e dificuldade em realizar movimentos amplos 3,5 . Essas alterações contribuem para lesões e disfunções musculoesqueléticas 2,6 . Diversas condições articulares e periarticulares levam à perda ou à redução da força muscular.…”

“…(2,4) The Parkinson's disease characteristics are: muscle stiffness; involuntary tremors at rest, mainly the upper limbs, may progress to other areas of the body such as the mandible in a fixed frequency between three to six cycles per second; large levels of difficulty to start a movement (akinesia); march festination mainly caused by akinesia; postural instability, caused by compromised postural reflexes; when performing slow trunk movements and many other types of engines which symptoms include dysphagia, fatigue, and changes in speech, (1,2,7,8) these motor symptoms occur gradually and they are hardly noticeable at the beginning of the disease. Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the elderly that affects men and women from the fifth decade of life, in Brazil the PD has an estimated prevalence of approximately 3.3%, (1,5,6) usually PD has as a treatment for symptoms mainly administration of drugs such as L-dopa (dihydroxyphenylalanine the levogeno isomer) and L-Deprenyl, with L-dopa is no relaxation of many of the symptoms of this disorder, it is believed that the explanation for this occurs due to drug conversion into dopamine thus causing a rebalance concentrations of dopamine in the central nervous system, although the treatment with L-Deprenyl has an inhibitory effect on monoamine oxidase is responsible for the destruction of dopamine after enzyme secreted causing a higher concentration of dopamine is released and remains in the tissue for a longer time.…”
