Abstract
Recentemente, a terapia ultrassônica de baixa intensidade (TUSBI) foi descrita como um tratamento plausível para rinossinusite crônica (RNC). OBJETIVOS: Avaliar os efeitos agudos da TUSBI de 1MHz contínua sobre a obstrução nasal de indivíduos com RNC. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Participaram de um estudo tipo placebo-controlado 26 indivíduos adultos com RNC (10 homens, 16 mulheres), alocados sequencialmente em dois grupos: controle-placebo (CP, n=12) e tratados com TUSBI (US, n=14). Para o tratamento determinou-se: ISATA= 1MHz, 1W.cm-2, contínuo, por quatro minutos nos seios maxilares e septo nasal. No grupo CP o equipamento permaneceu desligado. Para avaliação do nível de obstrução nasal, foi mesurado o volume total de secreção expelida (VSEx), avaliado pela instilação nasal de 5 mL de solução salina (NaCl-0,9%) e coleta do lavado nasal. O volume de ar expirado (VAEx) foi avaliado pelo teste do espelho de Glatzel. RESULTADOS: Os dados mostraram um aumento (p<0,01) nos valores dos VSEx e VAEx após terapia ultrassônica, indicando uma melhora de 64% da obstrução nasal comparado com o grupo CP. CONCLUSÕES: A TUSBI contínua reduziu a obstrução e congestão nasal, podendo ser empregada como modalidade terapêutica eficaz na fisioterapia respiratória de indivíduos com RNC.
Low-intensity ultrasound therapy (LIUST) has been described as a plausible treatment for chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). AIMS: To evaluate the short-term effects of continuous 1MHz LIUST on nasal obstruction in subjects with CRS. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A cohort placebo-controlled study comprising 26 CRS adults (10 men, 16 women), sequentially allocated into two groups: control-placebo (CP, n= 12) and treated with LIUST (US, n= 14). The treatment consisted of: ISATA = continuous 1MHz, 1W.cm-2 for four minutes in the maxillary sinuses and nasal septum. The equipment was switched off in the CP group. The degree of obstruction was assessed by the total volume of secretion expelled (VSEx) after nasal instillation of 5 mL saline solution (NaCl-0.9%) followed by nasal lavage. The volume of expired air (VEA) was assessed with a Glatzel mirror. RESULTS: The data showed an increase (p<0.01) in VSEx and VEA after ultrasound therapy, suggesting a 64% improvement of nasal obstruction compared with the CP group. CONCLUSIONS: Continuous LIUST reduced nasal obstruction and congestionç it may be used effectively in the respiratory therapy of CRS patients.
