RESUMO

BACKGROUND: To analyze the efficacy of the myofascial approach in patients with clinical anxiety and to study its relationship with associated symptoms. METHODS: Randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial. Thirty-six adult patients with clinical anxiety were randomized to receive the myofascial treatment (n = 18) or placebo (n = 18). The patients and the evaluators were blinded to this assignation. The treatment consisted of four myofascial sessions of 40 min each for four weeks. The placebo intervention consisted of four sessions of simulated myofascial intervention of the same duration and frequency as the treatment. Follow-up was at one, three and six months. The primary outcome was clinical anxiety measured using the STAI (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory). Secondary outcomes were central sensitization, general health, somatization, depression, and pain. RESULTS: There were significant differences in the behavior of the groups over time for clinical anxiety (STAI Trait-Anxiety) (p < 0.001), central sensitization (p = 0.005) and somatization (p = 0.008) in favor of the myofascial group, with a large effect size for anxiety and a medium effect size for central sensitization and somatization. Regarding clinical anxiety, after the intervention a mean difference was observed with respect to the baseline of 19.98 points in the myofascial group (p < 0.001) and 5.95 in the placebo group (p = 0.22). The intention-to-treat principle was used. There were no adverse events or side effects in either group. CONCLUSIONS: The myofascial approach is effective in improving anxiety levels and associated central sensitization processes in patients with clinical anxiety and this improvement is maintained over time. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT04826302.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Fibromyalgia (FM) is defined as a chronic syndrome characterized by diffuse musculoskeletal pain, associated with characteristic signs and symptoms such as fatigue and/or sleep and mood disorders, and whose etiology, pathogenesis and prognosis may or may not be known. There is growing evidence of manual therapy as a treatment for pain in the short and medium term, also in patients affected by FM. However, the heterogeneity of the manual therapy treatments administered are a very common clinical practice, as they are based more on the judgment or tendency of the physiotherapist, rather than on clear scientific evidence. Therefore, the aim of the present study protocol will be to determine which manual therapy approach is more effective in addressing health status by improving symptoms (sensory, cognitive, emotional and social) in patients with FM. METHODS: a randomized controlled clinical trial with a 3-month follow-up will be carried out with 52 female patients affected by rheumatologist-diagnosed FM will be recruited and evaluated at the Asociación de Fibromialgia y Síndrome de Fatiga Crónica (AFINSYFACRO) in Móstoles, Madrid, Spain. For more details on the protocol, a pilot study was carried out using a non-probability method of judgmental or purposive sampling. Thirteen patients were also evaluated, treated and reevaluated; eight patients were assigned to the myofascial techniques approach (MTA) group and five to the Maitland's mobilization approach (MMA) group. RESULTS: the preliminary results presented here are intended to show how the planned randomized controlled clinical trial will develop. Patients who received MTA had significantly improved pain and health status outcomes after treatment and at 1-month follow-up, with no significant change in those who received MMA. CONCLUSIONS: the exact details of the study protocol on which the manual therapy approach is more effective in addressing health status by improving symptoms (sensory, cognitive, emotional, and social) in patients with FM are presented. Preliminary results show that manual therapy is effective in improving pain and health status in patients with fibromyalgia at short and medium term, with significant results in those who received MTA.
