“…For this reason, stabilization exercises that improve strength, endurance, and neuromuscular control generate a reduction in chronic LBP [20]. The intensity of pain was evaluated by VAS, with a lower score in the final evaluation when compared to the initial evaluation in the groups that performed spinal segmental stabilization, when compared to the CG, which corroborates the results of other studies that also used central stabilization, demonstrating that central stabilization exercises reduce pain in individuals with chronic LBP [12,[21][22][23]quality of life and functional capacity","type":"article-journal","volume":"17"},"uri s":["http://www.mendeley.com/documents/?uuid=a18db685-2d51-4d75-bbd1-43b3cfc637fe","http://www.mendeley. c o m / d o c u m e n t s / ?…”

The objective of this study was to verify the results of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) associated with central stabilization exercises in individuals with chronic nonspecific low back pain, taking as parameters the pain and trophism of the multifidus muscle. Methods: 40 volunteers were recruited and distributed in the placebo group, electrostimulation, stabilization exercise and therapeutic association. Pain was analyzed by visual analogue scale and McGill's questionnaire, and trophism was analyzed by ultrasound images. The therapeutic protocol consisted of three therapies per week over 4 weeks, independent of the group, with pre-protocol and end-of-protocol evaluations. Results: Significant differences were observed in pain quantification with reduction for the group that performed stabilization exercises, however, there were no differences for trophism. Conclusion: It is concluded that the use of stabilization exercises produced good results for the reduction of pain in individuals with chronic nonspecific low back pain.

“…A resposta de 0 a 2 representa dor leve, 3 a 7 dor moderada e 8 a 10 dor intensa. (13) d) Para a análise de ocorrência de DORT, foi utilizado o Questionário Nórdico de Sintomas Osteomusculares (QNSO), validado no Brasil, o qual contém o desenho do corpo humano dividido em nove regiões anatômicas (pescoço, ombros, parte superior das costas, cotovelos, parte inferior das costas, punhos/mãos, quadril/coxas, joelho e tornozelo/pés), com a finalidade de registrar os sintomas osteomusculares. Este questionário registra os sintomas referentes aos últimos 12 meses e 7 dias.…”

Os distúrbios osteomusculares relacionados ao trabalho (DORT) podem afetar articulações, músculos, tendões, ligamentos e nervos periféricos e são comuns na agricultura devido à sobrecarga de trabalho, esforços excessivos e repetitivos e adoção de posturas inadequadas para a realização das atividades. O objetivo desse estudo é apresentar a prevalência de DORT, a intensidade e características da dor, além de descrever as categorias e ferramentas de trabalho de agricultores da região oeste do Paraná. Foi realizado um estudo observacional transversal com uma amostra representativa dos agricultores associados ao sindicato da região. Para coleta de dados utilizou-se um questionário sociodemográfico, um formulário sobre categorias e ferramentas de trabalho, a escala visual analógica de dor, o questionário nórdico de sintomas osteomusculares e o McGill para caracterização da dor. Participaram do estudo 144 agricultores, com predomínio do sexo masculino (63,89%) e faixa etária entre 18 e 47 anos (73,61%). A prevalência de DORT nos agricultores foi de 100% e, as regiões mais acometidas foram a parte inferior e superior das costas com (59,72%) e (43,75%) respectivamente. A intensidade da dor foi moderada em 50,69% e do tipo enjoada em 89,58% dos participantes. A atividade de cultivo de grãos está presente em 57,64% dos indivíduos e o uso de motosserra e maquinário agrícola foram as ferramentas mais citadas durante o labor. Os achados apontam a necessidade urgente de intervenção terapêutica e preventiva aos trabalhadores e contribuem ao avanço científico da área. Além de tratar os DORT, mostra-se imprescindível adaptações ergonômicas no trabalho dos agricultores.

“…This definition is used when the cause of pain cannot be precisely determined, thus excluding those cases of patients presenting with a specific cause (e.g., fracture, infection, cancer) (4). Physiotherapy aims to improve the functional capacity and quality of life of these patients (7), and exercise is an effective alternative to reduce pain (8). Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is also effective in reducing the intensity of nonspecific low back pain and should be used as a complementary treatment (9).…”

Background. Chronic nonspecific low back pain impairs function in affected individuals. Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) has shown to be effective in reducing the intensity of chronic nonspecific low back pain and should be used as a complementary treatment. The same can be said for electroacupuncture (EA), which consists of the application of electrical stimulation through punctured needles in acupuncture meridians, generating physiological reactions and leading to therapeutic effects. Objective. To compare the effects of EA and TENS in subjects with chronic nonspecific low back pain. Methods. Blind randomized clinical trial of 48 subjects with chronic nonspecific low back pain. The patients were allocated to the following groups: Conventional Kinesiotherapy (CG), Conventional Kinesiotherapy plus Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (CTENSG), and Conventional Kinesiotherapy plus Electroacupuncture (CEAG). The individuals were evaluated before and after interventions and at a 30-day follow-up for the following factors: pain level, flexibility, lumbopelvic stability, and function. A total of ten interventions were performed three times a week for four weeks. Results. All groups significantly improved pain. However, CEAG reduced pain significantly more than GTENSG and CG (p < 0.05). The three groups significantly improved function at endpoint (p < 0.05). Regarding the Roland Morris questionnaire, GCEAC scored significantly lower than CTENSG and CG (p < 0.05). Lumbopelvic stability improved in all tests for CEAG and CG. Conclusions. The association between electroacupuncture and exercise improved pain, function, and lumbopelvic stability in comparison to exercise alone or in association with TENS.
