Objetivo: Efetuar um levantamento de dados, através de uma análise retrospetiva, sobre a
eficácia da Oxigenoterapia Hiperbárica (OTH) na reabilitação de sequelas neuro-músculoesqueléticas
provocadas pela Doença de Descompressão (DD) e verificar quantos e que casos
precisaram da fisioterapia. Metodologia: A amostra foi constituída por 140 indivíduos, com
uma média de idades de 35,31 ± 9,49 anos, que tenham recebido tratamento de OTH em
Portugal continental, nomeadamente nos serviços de medicina hiperbárica do Hospital Pedro
Hispano (Matosinhos) e no centro médico subaquático de hiperbárica do Hospital das Forças
Armadas (Lisboa) com o diagnóstico de DD. Resultados: Desta amostra, 129 (92,1%) dos
indivíduos eram do género masculino e apenas 11 (7,9%) do género feminino. Do total, 111
(79,3%) pertenciam ao Hospital das Forças Armadas e 29 (20,7%) ao Hospital Pedro
Hispano. A DD tipo 1 teve como resultado 60 (42%) de prevalência e o tipo 2 de 74 (52,9%)
em 134 indivíduos, havendo 6 (4,3%) omissos. Apenas os diagnosticados com DD tipo 2,
com comprometimento medular, 6 (8,1%) indivíduos realizaram fisioterapia. Conclusão: A
OTH é o tratamento gold-standard para a DD e que a necessidade da fisioterapia, como
tratamento complementar, revelou-se importante na DD tipo 2 com comprometimento
medular.
Objective: To conduct a data collection, through a retrospective analysis, on the efficacy of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO) in the rehabilitation of neuro-musculoskeletal sequelae caused by Decompression Disease (DD) and to verify how many and which cases required physiotherapy. Methodology: The sample consisted of 140 individuals, with a mean age of 35.31 ± 9.49 years, who had received HBO treatment in mainland Portugal, namely in the hyperbaric medicine services of Pedro Hispano Hospital (Matosinhos) and in the underwater hyperbaric medical center of the Armed Forces Hospital (Lisbon) with the diagnosis of DD. Results: Of this sample, 129 (92.1%) of the individuals were male and only 11 (7.9%) were female. Of the total, 111 (79.3%) belonged to the Armed Forces Hospital and 29 (20.7%) to the Pedro Hispano Hospital. Type 1 DD was prevalent in 60 (42%) and type 2 in 74 (52.9%) of 134 individuals, with 6 (4.3%) without information. Only 6 (8.1%) individuals underwent physiotherapy diagnosed with type 2 DD, all with spinal cord involvement. Conclusion: HBO is the gold standard treatment for DD and the need for physiotherapy, as a complementary treatment, has been shown to be important in type 2 DD with spinal cord involvement.
