Abstract(s)
Objetivo: esta revisão da literatura teve como foco analisar a eficácia da abordagem hidroterapêutica em crianças com paralisia cerebral, sobretudo da sua influência na força, na flexibilidade, na espasticidade, na capacidade respiratória, na amplitude de movimento, no equilíbrio e nas capacidades motoras básicas para a mobilidade funcional. Metodologia: foi realizada uma pesquisa computorizada nas bases de dados Pubmed/Medline, EBSCO, ScienceDirect e PEDro e B-on. A seleção dos estudos foi efetuada segundo os critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Resultados: foram incluídos 9 estudos experimentais. Dos artigos analisados, 7 avaliaram as capacidades motoras básicas, 3 avaliaram a capacidade respiratória, 3 avaliaram a espasticidade, 1 avaliou a flexibilidade, 1 avaliou a força, 1 avaliou a amplitude de movimento e 1 avaliou o equilíbrio. Conclusão: Pela análise dos estudos encontrados podemos concluir que a hidroterapia parece mostrar-se eficaz no tratamento de crianças com paralisia cerebral, principalmente nas componentes da espasticidade, na capacidade respiratória e nas capacidades motoras básicas. No entanto, apesar de parecer ser igualmemte eficaz no aumento da força, do equilíbrio, na amplitude de movimento e na flexibilidade, os dados por nós recolhidos não nos permitem uma conclusão clara sobre os efeitos da hidroterapia nas crianças com paralisia cerebral.
Objective: this review of the literature has focused on the efficacy of the hydrotherapeutic approach in children with cerebral palsy, especially its influence on strength, flexibility, spasticity, respiratory capacity, range of motion, balance and basic motor skills for functional mobility. Methodology: a computerized search was conducted in Pubmed / Medline, EBSCO, ScienceDirect and PEDro and B-on databases. The selection of the studies was carried out according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: 9 experimental studies were included. From the analyzed articles, 7 evaluated the basic motor skills, 3 assessed the respiratory capacity, 3 assessed spasticity, 1 assessed flexibility, 1 assessed strength, 1 assessed range of motion and 1 assessed balance. Conclusion: By analyzing the studies found, we can conclude that hydrotherapy seems to be effective in the treatment of children with cerebral palsy, especially in the components of spasticity, respiratory capacity and basic motor skills. However, although it seems to be equally effective in increasing strength, balance, range of motion and flexibility, the data collected by us does not allow us to reach a clear conclusion about the effects of hydrotherapy in children with cerebral palsy.
