ResumoDiversos recursos podem ser utilizados para produzir efeitos benéficos sobre o Equilíbrio Postural (EP), dentre eles supõe-se o método da bandagem elástica adesiva (BEA). O objetivo desta pesquisa foi analisar os efeitos da BEA no EP de indivíduos sedentários. O estudo realizado foi série de casos com uma amostra de 16 indivíduos de ambos os sexos, com média de idade de 23,0 ± 2,7 anos e de Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) de 21,9 ± 2,2 kg/ m². Foi utilizado para obtenção dos dados o sistema F-Scan com um sensor F-Mat modelo 3100 (Tekscan, Inc., South Boston, MA) e software versão 4.21, por meio do qual foram obtidos os parâmetros: comprimento total da trajetória, amplitude dos deslocamentos nos sentidos ântero-posterior e médio-lateral e velocidade máxima atingida pelo centro de pressão. Não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas em nenhuma das comparações entre os parâmetros avaliados, concluindo que o uso da BEA não produziu efeitos sobre o EP dos indivíduos estudados.Palavras-chave: equilíbrio postural, tornozelo, estabilidade. AbstractSeveral features can be used to produce beneficial effects on the Postural Balance (PB), among them the elastic adhesive tape (EAT). The objective of this research was to analyze the effects of the EAT on PB of sedentary individuals. The study was a serie of cases with a sample of 16 individuals of both sexes 23.0 ± 2.7 years old and Body Mass Index (BMI) of 21.9 ± 2.2 kg/m². Was used for data collection the F-Scan system with a F-Mat sensor model 3100 (Tekscan Inc., South Boston, MA) and software version 4.21, through which were obtained the parameters: total length of the trajectory, amplitude of displacements in the anterior-posterior and medial-lateral and maximum speed reached by the center of pressure. It was found no statistically significant differences in any of the comparisons between the parameters evaluated, concluding that the EAT had not produced effects on PB of the studied individuals.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
