Análise da postura craniocervical de crianças respiradoras bucais após tratamento postural em bola suíça

Abstract: | The study aimed to evaluate the craniocervical posture of mouth breathing children after postural treatment on swiss ball. Twelve mouth breathing children were undergone to a postural reeducation protocol through stretching and strengthening exercises on swiss ball, diaphragmatic stimulation and stretching of the inspiratory accessory muscles. Craniocervical posture was evaluated through biophotogrammetry analysis. Forward head position was measured through an angle formed by the points in the tragus and in … Show more

“…Studies found mean values of 46.1° in NB and 47.8° in MB children after physiotherapy (15,22). Using photogrammetric measures similar to those of this study (HAH and CD), Weber et al (23) found a decrease in forward head posture and reestablished cervical lordosis in mouth breathing children after postural treatment with a Swiss ball. The authors considered that postural realignment obtained by intervention promoted relaxation of accessory inspiratory muscles and improved diaphragmatic breathing.…”

“…These values were similar to the ones found in all the children (G1=45.64° and G2=45.80) evaluated in this study. Higher values of this angle were obtained in mouth-breathing children that went through physical therapy for postural treatment, with values of 44 and 47.8 degrees, before and after treatment, respectively 20 . Despite the absence of difference in HHA measure between groups, the FE measure was greater in G2, with both presenting forward head position.…”

“…Oberwaldner 18 observou que para conseguir a cooperação da criança com o tratamento, este deve ser realizado adicionando-se formas de distração, persuasão, palavras de incentivo e mediação de jogos e brincadeiras, pois o paciente infantil necessita de recursos lúdicos, que se tornam essenciais na terapia respiratória 8 . Na pesquisa aqui apresentada, ao associar esses procedimentos ao tratamento, como meio de facilitação do atendimento da criança, criou-se um elo de confiança e independência para o paciente realizar as atividades propostas sem estresse, no Grupo A. Em outro estudo, Silva 19 apontou que a hospitalização em si já é vista pelas crianças como ameaçadora, causando ansiedade, uma vez que elas associam o jaleco branco dos profissionais da saúde com sua dor, pois quando vão receber uma medicação ou procedimento que lhes causam desconforto e as façam chorar, esta vestimenta torna-se um estímulo condicionado A utilização da bola suíça facilita o manuseio das crianças, conforme demonstrado por Weber et al 20 , que propuseram um trabalho em conjunto postural com variação de decúbito dorsal, decúbito lateral e ventral, realizando também alongamento dos músculos associados a mecânica ventilatória.…”
