Objetivo: Sumariar a evidência acerca do efeito a longo prazo do exercício muscular sobre a dor em indivíduos com cervicalgia crónica não traumática. Metodologia: Pesquisa computadorizada nas bases de dados PubMed, PEDro e Web of Science de modo a selecionar estudos randomizados controlados que avaliassem o efeito sobre a dor a longo prazo de um programa de exercício muscular na cervicalgia crónica. Resultados: 6 estudos cumpriram os critérios de elegibilidade definidos, tendo apresentado os resultados para um total de 987 participantes e uma média de classificação metodológica de 7/10 na escala de PEDro. Conclusão: a evidência sugere que o exercício muscular, sobretudo o treino de fortalecimento, pode ser eficaz a longo prazo para diminuir a dor de indivíduos com cervicalgia crónica não traumática. No entanto, para estes efeitos serem conseguidos, é sugerido também que para intervenções mais curtas, a frequência de treino semanal deva ser superior e vice-versa. Verifica-se também que o treino de Tai-Chi ou de Qigong pode ser benéfico na diminuição da dor em indivíduos ativos, mas não em idosos.
Aim: To summarize the evidence about the long-term effect of muscular exercise training on the pain of individuals with non-traumatic chronic neck pain. Methodology: Computerized research on PubMed, PEDro and Web of Science databases in order to select randomized controlled studies that assessed the long-term effect of muscular exercise training in chronic neck pain. Results: 6 studies fulfilled the eligibility criteria, presenting the results for a total of 987 participants and an average of 7/10 of methodological classification in the PEDro Scale. Conclusion: Evidence suggests that muscle exercise, particularly strength training, may be effective in the long term for decreasing pain in individuals with non-traumatic chronic neck pain. However, for these effects to be achieved, it is also suggested that for shorter interventions, the weekly training frequency should be higher and vice versa. It was also verified that Tai-Chi or Qigong training may be beneficial in reducing pain in active individuals, but not in the elderly.
