INTRODUÇÃO: A disfunção do complexo articular do ombro (DCAO) ocorre em 8%
a 20% das lesões no voleibol. A evidência sugere os efeitos de um programa de exercício
escapulo-torácico (ET) em DCAO, com alteração na estabilidade dinâmica da omoplata,
focados na ativação seletiva dos músculos estabilizadores locais (Trapézio Inferior – TI;
Grande Dentado – GD) e redução da hiperatividade do Trapézio Superior (TS). O
Biofeedback Eletromiográfico (BEMG) pode promover a ativação muscular seletiva dos
músculos ET em sujeitos com DCAO, porém não existe investigação do seu efeito em
overhead sports (OHS). OBJETIVO: Comparar os efeitos de um protocolo de exercícios
ET com recurso ao BEMG comparativamente a um protocolo de exercícios ET ao nível
da intensidade da dor, funcionalidade e intensidade de ativação muscular em atletas
voleibolistas femininas com DCAO. METODOLOGIA: A amostra foi constituída por
14 atletas da equipa de voleibol feminina da Universidade Lusófona de Lisboa com
DCAO, dividida em dois grupos (n=7 no Grupo Exercício – GEXC; n=7 no Grupo
Exercício com recurso ao BEMG - GBEMG). Os dois grupos avaliaram-se em três
momentos (T0 – avaliação inicial; T1 – avaliação às 4 semanas; T2 – avaliação às 8
semanas) na intensidade de ativação muscular (eletromiografia de superfície - EMGs) dos
músculos TI, GD e TS em duas tarefas (lenta e balística), intensidade da dor (escala
numérica da dor - END) e funcionalidade (DASH - Disabilities of the arm, shoulder and
hand). Foi feita uma análise dos resultados das intervenções entre os dois grupos, em T1
e T2 e uma comparação dos resultados das intervenções em cada grupo, ao longo das três
avaliações. RESULTADOS: Não se obtiveram quaisquer diferenças estatisticamente
significativas (p>0.05) na avaliação entre os dois grupos nos três outcomes avaliados. Na
tarefa lenta, o GEXC obteve diferenças estatisticamente significativas na intensidade de
ativação no TS (p=0.028) e GD (p=0.028), entre T0 e T1, e no GBEMG, entre T1 e T2
na ativação no TI (p=0.028). Na tarefa balística, obtiveram-se diferenças significativas
no GEXC entre T1 e T2 (no TS; p=0.028) e no GBEMG entre T0 e T2 (no TS; p=0.018).
Para a intensidade da dor, obtiveram-se diferenças significativas no GEXC (T0-T2;
p=0.024) e no GBEMG (T1-T2; p=0.026 / T0-T2; p=0.046). Para a Funcionalidade
apenas o GBEMG obteve uma diferença significativa (T0-T2; p=0.028). DISCUSSÃO
E CONCLUSÃO: O BEMG não apresentou efeitos adicionais significativos
comparativamente ao exercício isolado.
INTRODUCTION: Disorders of the Shoulder Joint Complex (DSJC) account for an estimated 8% to 20% of all volleyball-related injuries. The literature describes the effects of scapula-focused exercises in DSJC with dynamic stability alterations, by selective activation of local stabilizing muscles (increase of lower trapezius – LT; serratus anterior - SA activation) and decrease of UT hyperactivity. Electromyographic biofeedback (EMGB) has been quoted as a way to improve selective muscle activation in subjects with DSJC, however there is no information about the effect of EMGB in overhead athletes. GOAL: To compare the effects of scapula-focused exercises using EMGB versus scapula-focused exercises focused on muscle activation, pain, and function, in female volleyball players with DSJC. METHODOLOGY: A sample of 14 individuals with DSJC (impingement syndrome and shoulder joint instability) was divided into two groups (n=7 – Exercise Group; n=7 – EMGB group). Both groups were evaluated in three moments (T0 – initial evaluation; T1 – after 4 weeks; T2 - after 8 weeks) regarding the intensity of muscle activity of UT, LT and SA (superficial electromyography - EMGs) during two upper limb functional tasks, pain (Numeric Pain Rating Scale - NPRS) and function (Disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand – DASH). The data was analyzed, by a comparison of results between two groups followed by as analysis of the results in each individual group during the three evaluations. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) of muscle activity between the two groups for the three outcomes. In regards to the slow activity, the Exercise Group had statistically significant differences in UT (p=0.028) and SA (T0-T1; p=0.028), and the EMGB had a significant difference in LT (T1-T2; p=0.028). The data for the ballistic activity revealed a significant difference in Exercise Group in UT (T1-T2; p=0.028), and the EMGB Group had a significant difference in UT (T0-T2; p=0.018). Pain reduced significantly in Exercise Group (T0-T2; p=0.024) and EMGB Group (T1-T2; p=0.026 / T0-T2; p=0.046). Function increased significantly only in EMGB Group (T0-T2; p=0.028). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The EMGB did not show any additional effects in muscle activity, pain, and function compared to isolated scapular exercises.
