Objetivo: Verificar se a eletrolipólise pode ser um método coadjuvante na Reabilitação
Cardíaca (RC) de modo a diminuir a gordura abdominal em indivíduos com Doença
Cardiovascular (DCV).
Métodos: Seis indivíduos, de ambos os sexos, da classe de RC do Centro Clinico de Gaia
(CCG), foram distribuídos aleatoriamente em dois grupos, grupo controlo (GC) (n=3) e
grupo experimental (GE) (n=3). O GE realizou 8 sessões (duas vezes por semana) de
eletrolipólise por microcorrentes 30 minutos antes da classe de RC. Utilizaram-se como
meios de avaliação a perimetria, adipometria, bioimpedância e ultrassonografia, análise
sanguíneas, bem como a aplicação da Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS),
Questionário Internacional de Actividade Física (IPAQ) e Questionário Semi-Quantitativo
de Frequência Alimentar (QSQFA).
Resultados: Através do cálculo da mudança mínima detetável (MMD) verificou-se
diminuição do perímetro ao nível do umbigo (3,7cm e 1,5cm) e barriga (4,2cm e 2,83cm)
em dois indivíduos do GE e diminuição nas avaliações da ultrassonografia (de 1,3mm a
8,4mm) no GE.
Conclusão: Do presente estudo foi possível concluir que nesta amostra existiu uma
tendência para a diminuição da gordura abdominal localizada através dos dados obtidos
pela perimetria e ultrassonografia.
Objective: Verify if electrolipolysis could help the Cardiac Rehabilitation decreasing the abdominal’s fat in people with Cardiovascular Disease. Methods: six individuals of both sexes, from “Centro Clínico de Gaia” Cardiac Rehabilitation Program, were randomized in two groups: the control (CG) (n=3) and the experimental group (EG) (n=3). The EG had 8 session (twice a week) of electrolipolysis, through microcurrent, during 30 minutes and before the Cardiac Rehabilitation classes. Subjects were evaluated with perimeter and skinfold thickness measurements, bioelectrical-impedance analysis and ultrasonography, blood analyses, as well as Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Results: The calculation of Minimal Detectable Change (MDC) showed, in two individuals of the EG, a decrease in the navel measure (3,7cm and 1,5cm) and in the belly measure (4,2cm and 2,83cm). All the individuals that belonged to the EG showed, at the end of the study, a decrease in the ultrasonography data (of 1,3mm to 8,4mm). Conclusion: Through the analyses of the results obtained in this study and for these individuals, it was possible to conclude, by perimeter measurement and ultrasonography data, a decrease of the abdominal fat.
