A intervenção da fisioterapia em pós operatório de restauração do manguito rotador

Abstract

The physiotherapeutic intervention has been presented as an effective means for the postoperative rehabilitation of the rotator cuff, reducing the symptoms and collaborating with the recovery of the patient. Because the rotator cuff is one of the causes of more frequent injuries in physiotherapy, the present study aimed to demonstrate the physiotherapeutic procedure as a useful means for the rehabilitation of the rotator cuff postoperatively, providing the patient with a brief return to their daily life activities. The results showed a decrease in pain, gain of muscular strength and improvement in the amplitude of their movements. Its methodology was based on the bibliographic review, through the analysis of books, scientific articles focused on the theme and publications of the last years in the main scientific databases (Cochrane, Scielo, Medline, PubMed, Lilacs and Bireme). The research seeks to stimulate the need for future research as a stimulus for the adoption of physiotherapy as essential in the patient's functionality and to contribute to the knowledge and effectiveness of health professionals in an interdisciplinary field.
