Abstract
AbstractThe partial vascular occlusion (PVO) associated with exercises, proposed by the KAATSU Training method, has the objective of strengthening and muscle hypertrophy with low joint overload. Currently, PVO has been associated with exercises to strengthen then quadriceps, however it is not known about its influence on postural control or the possibility of imbalances during the performance of exercises. Objectives: To evaluate the effect of quadriceps vascular occlusion on postural control in women with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Methods: The sample in this study was composed of four sedentary women, aged between 18 and 40 years, with a clinical diagnosis of patellofemoral dysfunction. Participants responded to the Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS) and the Anterior Knee Pain Scale (AKPS). They were submitted to an evaluation of postural control over the force platform, by means of dynamic one-legged squat activity, with and without PVO. The variables of postural control analyzed were Area of pressure center (A-COP), Anteroposterior (AP) and medium-lateral (ML), Velocity AP and ML. Results: No significant differences were found for the variables of postural control analyzed when comparing the moments with and without peripheral vascular occlusion during single-legged squat activities. Conclusion: The single leg squat with vascular occlusion does not change the postural control of patients with PFPS with and without PVO, and that the method can be used for training these patients, without impairments related to postural control.Keywords: Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome.

Atualmente, a OVP tem sido associada a exercícios de fortalecimento do quadríceps, porém não se sabe sobre sua influência no controle postural ou na possibilidade de desequilíbrios durante a execução dos exercícios. Objetivos: Avaliar o efeito da oclusão vascular do quadríceps no controle postural de mulheres com síndrome da dor patelofemoral (SDFP). Métodos: A amostra deste estudo foi composta por quatro mulheres sedentárias, com idade entre 18 e 40 anos, com diagnóstico clínico de disfunção femoropatelar. Os participantes responderam à Escala Visual Analógica de Dor (VAS) e à Escala de Dor Anterior no Joelho (AKPS). Elas foram submetidas à avaliação do controle postural sobre a plataforma de força, por meio da atividade de agachamento unipodal dinâmico, com e sem OVP. As variáveis de controle postural analisadas foram área do centro de pressão (A-COP), ântero-posterior (AP) e médio-lateral (ML), velocidade AP e ML. Resultados: Não foram encontradas diferenças significativas para as variáveis de controle postural analisadas na comparação dos momentos com e sem OVP durante o agachamento unipodal. Conclusão: O agachamento unipodal com OVP não alterou o controle postural de mulheres com SDFP, e o método pode ser utilizado para treinar esses pacientes, sem prejuízos relacionados ao controle postural.Palavras-chave: Síndrome da Dor Patelofemoral.
