Efectividad de los protocolos de fisioterapia para pacientes con dolor lumbar crónico. Una revisión sistemática

Introduccion: El 70-85% de la poblacion general sufre dolor lumbar. Los programas de Escuela de Columna (EC) han demostrado ser efectivos en el tratamiento de la lumbalgia cronica (LC). El taping podria ser util en la disminucion del dolor y la normalizacion de la funcion muscular. Objetivo: Evaluar la eficacia a corto y a largo plazo del taping en combinacion con EC en el tratamiento de LC. Materiales y metodos : Este es un ensayo clinico controlado randomizado. El grupo experimental (GE) utilizo cinta tape y realizo EC y el grupo control (GC) solo realizo EC. Se registraron al inicio y final del tratamiento el dolor conla Escala Visual Analoga (EVA), la flexibilidad con el Modified Finger Tip to Floor Test (MFTF) y la funcionalidad con el Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ). Resultados: Se incluyeron 220 sujetos, completando el tratamiento solo 42 en el GE y 33 en el GC. El delta de dolor entre la primera y la quinta sesion no demostro diferencias entre los grupos independientemente del tiempo (p=0.329). Tampoco hubo diferencias entre los grupos en el RMDQ (p=0.75) asi como en el MFTF (p=0.20). Conclusion: El taping en combinacion con EC comparado con el tratamiento exclusivo de EC no demostro ser mas eficaz en la disminucion del dolor, el aumento de la funcionalidad y flexibilidad en los pacientes con lumbalgia cronica
