Abstract(s)
Introdução: A Esclerose Múltipla (EM) é uma doença neurológica crónica, de etiologia
desconhecida, em que ocorre desmielinização das bainhas de mielina do sistema nervoso central
(SNC), que torna deficitárias as funções vitais e funcionalidade do indivíduo, o que pode levar,
entre outras coisas, à ocorrência de quedas. Assim, a Fisioterapia é essencial para o tratamento
de pacientes com esta patologia, uma vez que, diminui limitações e outras fragilidades,
promovendo assim, funcionalidade e qualidade-de-vida. Objetivo: Este estudo analisa as
diversas abordagens terapêuticas, para que possamos compreender qual a mais eficaz no
tratamento na redução do risco de quedas, em doentes com EM. Metodologia: Foi efetuada
uma pesquisa bibliográfica recorrendo a motor de busca e base de dados Pubmed e PEDro,
incluindo, estudos randomizados controlados, realizados em humanos, disponíveis para
consulta integral, idioma português ou inglês. Resultados: 290 artigos encontrados, dos quais
10 foram incluídos nesta análise, uma vez que, cumpriam o total dos critérios de inclusão.
Conclusão: Através desta revisão bibliográfica, podemos concluir que existem diversas
estratégias que podem ser utilizados para diminuir o risco de quedas em pacientes com EM.
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease of unknown etiology in which demyelination of myelin sheaths of the central nervous system (CNS) occurs, that makes the individual's vital functions and functionality deficient, which may lead, among other things, to the occurrence of falls. Therefore, physiotherapy is essential for the treatment of patients with this pathology, since it decreases limitations and other fragilities, thus promoting functionality and quality-of-life. Objective: This study analyzes the different therapeutic approaches, so that we can understand the most effective treatment in reducing the risk of falls in MS patients. Methodology: A bibliographic search was performed using the search engines and databases Pubmed and PEDro, including randomized controlled trials conducted in humans, available for full consultation, in Portuguese or English. Results: Of the 290 articles found, 10 were included in this analysis, since they satisfied the total inclusion criteria. Conclusion: Through this literature review, we can conclude that there are several strategies that can be used to reduce the risk of falls in MS patients.
