Abstract
Se realizó una intervención terapéutica en 21 pacientes con síndrome del túnel carpiano, atendidos en los servicios de rehabilitación integral de los policlínicos "30 de Noviembre" y "Josué País García" de Santiago de Cuba, desde junio de 2009 hasta igual mes de 2010, con vistas a describir aspectos clínicos de interés y la respuesta al tratamiento con láser blando semiconductor a 6 J/cm². Las principales variables analizadas fueron: edad, sexo, demanda funcional, mano afectada, síntomas y signos e intensidad del dolor. Se aplicó la prueba de Ji al cuadrado (p<0,05) y se utilizó el porcentaje como medida de resumen. En la serie predominaron el sexo femenino y el grupo etario de 50-59 años. Luego de la terapia aplicada disminuyó el dolor y se logró la analgesia en 66,7 % de los afectados; asimismo, la mejoría se obtuvo principalmente entre las 16 y 20 sesiones. Se concluyó que la fisioterapia es capaz de modificar evolutivamente parámetros clínicos en quienes presentan esta afección.
