Efeitos do treinamento proprioceptivo e sensoriomotor em atletas com lesão osteomioarticular em membros inferiores: um protocolo de revisão sistemática

Abstract

Introduction: Injury is the term used to define a limitation in function, which requires medical attention and removes the athlete from his or her activities, whether in training or game. Lower limb injuries usually involves hip, knee, shin, and ankle. They can limit fundamental movements for sports like running, jumping and changing direction, changing mechanical and functional stability. A rupture of osteomioarticular structure can compromise the mechanoreceptors and consequently decrease the proprioceptive capacity. As a result, the proprioception and sensorimotor system stimulation has been used by physiotherapy in the rehabilitation of these lesions. Objective: To elaborate a systematic review protocol that evaluates the effects of proprioceptive and sensorimotor training in athletes who suffered lower limbs osteomioarticular injury. Methodology: The PICO strategy was used to establish the question that guides the review search. The protocol was structured through the Review Manager 5.3 program and followed the Prisma-P checklist. The search will be done in the databases MEDLINE, LILACS, PubMed, PEDro, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials; EMBASE (OvidSP); CINAHL (EBSCO); Web of Science; Scopus and gray literature. Randomized Controlled trials with proprioceptive and sensorimotor training in athletes with lower limb injuries will be included. Two independent reviewers will evaluate articles for eligibility. A third reviewer will resolve any disagreement. Conclusion: The systematic review will benefit health professionals, especially physiotherapists, optimizing therapy and aiming to return the athlete as fast as possible, and serving as a guide for future research on new issues within this problematic.
