Abstract: A carga mecânica provoca microdeformações ósseas, que estimulam células osteoblásticas e, conseqüentemente, promovem adaptações nos ossos, muitas vezes relacionadas com uma menor reabsorção óssea e um aumento na formação óssea local. No entanto, o estímulo para formação óssea depende do número e freqüência das deformações aplicadas no osso. Concomitantemente aos estímulos ósseos providos pelas cargas mecânicas, é importante uma dieta rica em cálcio, a qual também beneficia o aumento da massa óssea. Entretanto,… Show more

“…Electrical stimulation (ES) to promote regeneration, although controversial [11][12][13] , became a topic of study in functional muscle recovery, and may be used as a method of preventing muscle atrophy resulting from a period of muscle inactivity regardless if caused by denervation or not 9 .…”

“…Authors, such as Tagami et al 14 observed that the daily application of electrical stimulation in rats is beneficial for axonal regeneration and does not contribute to functional impairment, unlike some authors who have cited harmful effects of electrical stimulation, causing contractures and spasms [11][12][13] .…”

“…However, they suggested the need for further studies to assess the treatment protocol used. Carvalho et al (2002) studied the nonunion treatment with magnetic fields, ultrasound, and helium-neon laser radiation. They obtained positive effects with this noninvasive technique by means of inductive stimuli, which created magnetic fields around the nonunion region.…”

“…The bone deposition process can be regulated in proportion to the strain imposed on it. Thus, bone deformation is able to produce direct electrical current, which can stimulate bone formation (1,2).…”
