Eficacia del ultrasonido en la fascitis plantar: revisión sistemática

Abstract

Objetivo. Comprobar la efectividad del ultrasonido en el tratamiento de la fascistis plantar. Estrategia de búsqueda. Se realizó una búsqueda con base en la normativa PRISMA en las bases de datos Scopus, PubMed, Med Line, Science Direct y Cochrane Library. Selección de estudios. Se seleccionaron 12 estudios que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión y exclusión Resultados. Se analizaron un total de 12 estudios, obteniendo así un total de 708 sujetos para analizar, con una puntuación mínima de seis en la escala PEDro. La mayoría de los estudios obtuvieron datos estadísticamente significativos en la mejora del dolor y funcionalidad de los sujetos. Se obtuvieron datos muy heterogéneos en lo referente a medida de variables, aplicación de las técnicas y periodo de evaluación de las variables, así como el número de evaluaciones que se realizaban durante el ensayo. Los estudios muestran que el ultrasonido influye positivamente en variables como el dolor, la funcionalidad, el cambio objetivo en tejido de la fascia y la propiocepción del sujeto. En comparación con otros tratamientos como las ESWT, o la magnetoterapia no se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas para la totalidad de las variables. Conclusión. Existen datos de la efectividad del ultrasonido en la fascitis plantar; esta técnica asociada con ejercicios y estiramientos específicos de la fascia plantar ofrece resultados estadísticamente significativos.

Objective. To check the effectiveness of ultrasound in the treatment of plantar fasciitis. Search Strategy. A search was carried out based on the PRISMA regulations in the following databases, Scopus, PubMed, MedLine, Science Direct and Cochrane Library. Study Selection. A total of 12 studies were selected that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results. A total of 12 studies were analysed, thus obtaining a total of 708 subjects to analyse, with a minimum score of 6 on the PEDro scale. Most studies obtained statistically significant data on improving the pain and functionality of subjects. Very heterogeneous data were obtained regarding variable measurement, application of techniques, period of evaluation of variables and the number of evaluations that were performed during the trial. Studies show that ultrasound positively influences variables such as pain, functionality, target change in fascia tissue and the subject's proprioception. Compared to other treatments like ESWT or magnetotherapy statistically significant differences were found for all variables. Conclusion. There are data that prove the effectiveness of ultrasonic therapy in plantar fasciitis. This technique associated with specific exercises and stretches of the plantar fascia offers statistically significant results.
