Resumo
A liberação miofascial é uma técnica manual que atua diretamente na fáscia que é um tecido conjuntivo presente no corpo todo, contribuindo para que ocorra a mobilização dos tecidos moles proporcionando um alívio de dor, ganho de amplitude de movimento, flexibilidade e estabilidade postural. No entanto, não existe um consenso na literatura sobre os efeitos desta técnica. Com isso, o objetivo da presente revisão sistemática é verificar os efeitos da liberação miofascial na capacidade funcional de idosos. Este estudo se caracteriza como uma revisão sistemática e foi elaborado com base em um protocolo registrado na plataforma PROSPERO e redigido de acordo com as instruções PRISMA. As buscas foram conduzidas até dezembro de 2021 e foram realizadas nas bases de dados PubMed, ScienceDirect e Embase. A estratégia de busca nestas bases preconizou incluir todos os estudos possíveis sobre o tema “idoso” e “liberação miofascial”. As buscas nas bases de dados resultaram em um total de 649 títulos, incluindo estudos duplicados. Após a exclusão dos estudos duplicados (n = 113), 536 artigos tiveram seus títulos e resumos examinados, e um total de 27 artigos foram selecionado para a leitura na íntegra. Destes, 21 foram excluídos pelos motivos: a) artigos publicados repetidamente em uma das plataformas, b) testes em animais, c) relatos de caso, d) literatura sobre desenho de ensaios metodológicos, e)revisão geral, f) não ser idoso, <60 anos.Por fim, 6 artigos foram selecionados após terem sua elegibilidade confirmada pelos critérios estabelecidos.
Myofascial release is a manual technique that acts directly on the fascia, which is a connective tissue present throughout the body, contributing to the mobilization of soft tissues, providing pain relief, gain in range of motion, flexibility and postural stability. However, there is no consensus in the literature about the effects of this technique. Therefore, the objective of this systematic review is to verify the effects of myofascial release on the functional capacity of the elderly. This study is characterized as a systematic review and was prepared based on a protocol registered on the PROSPERO platform and written in accordance with the PRISMA instructions. Searches were conducted until December 2021 and were performed in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Embase databases. The search strategy in these databases recommended including all possible studies on the topic “elderly” and “myofascial release”. Database searches resulted in a total of 649 titles, including duplicate studies. After excluding duplicate studies (n = 113), 536 articles had their titles and abstracts examined, and a total of 27 articles were selected for full reading. Of these, 21 were excluded for the reasons: a) articles published repeatedly on one of the platforms, b) animal tests, c) case reports, d) literature on methodological trial design, e) general review, f) not being elderly, <60 years. Finally, 6 articles were selected after having their eligibility confirmed by the established criteria.
