Resumo
Atualmente, cerca de 27 milhões de pessoas com mais de 18 anos sofrem de dor musculoesquelética crônica, esse dado reflete a necessidade do Sistema de Saúde estar apto a receber e tratar os pacientes com a doença dor crônica de forma ampla e eficaz. Nesse contexto, a acupuntura surge como uma técnica chinesa milenar baseada na perfuração com agulhas finas em pontos específicos do corpo com objetivo de alívio ou tratamento de queixas de diversos sistemas. Essa modalidade de tratamento se aprimorou e expandiu ao longo dos anos e hoje é utilizada em diversos países, como no Brasil. Através da Política Nacional de Práticas Integrativas e Complementares (PNPIC), a acupuntura foi inclusa com objetivo de representar mais opções de tratamento para a população brasileira. Na dor crônica, são crescentes os estudos evidenciando os benefícios da acupuntura, embora com escassez em aplicações mais específicas. Assim, este trabalho objetiva analisar a resposta de pacientes que completaram o tratamento da dor musculoesquelética crônica com acupuntura por meio de um estudo observacional transversal retrospectivo, com análise de 64 prontuários de pacientes com queixa de dor crônica musculoesquelética que receberam tratamento com acupuntura no período de janeiro de 2000 a janeiro de 2023 no Centro de Estudos de Acupuntura do Paraná (CESAC-PR). Foram coletados e interpretados dados referentes a perfil epidemiológico, queixas mais recorrentes, resposta no prazo estabelecido, tempo de evolução dos quadros dolorosos e segmento articular sintomático. Como resultado, dentre os 64 pacientes pesquisados, 27 apresentaram melhora após a 5ª sessão, 22 apresentaram piora e 15 não apresentavam registro em prontuário. De tal forma, o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes foi de acordo com a literatura. Entretanto, com relação as variáveis analisadas entre si, como sexo, duração da dor, resposta em número determinado de sessões de acupuntura e componente psicossomático, não forneceram respostas estatisticamente significativas. De tal forma, conclui-se que a principal limitação deste estudo foi a quantidade dos dados fornecidos.
Currently, around 27 million people over the age of 18 suffer from chronic musculoskeletal pain, this data reflects the need for the Health System to be able to receive and treat patients with chronic pain in a broad and effective way. In this context, acupuncture comes up as an ancient Chinese technique based on the puncturing with thin needles at specific points on the body with the aim of relieving or treating complaints from different systems. This treatment modality has improved and expanded over the years and is now utilized in several countries, such as Brazil. Through the National Policy on Integrative and Complementary Practices (PNPIC), acupuncture was included with the aim of representing more treatment options for the Brazilian population. In chronic pain, there are increasing studies showing the benefits of acupuncture, although there is a lack of more specific applications. Thus, this work aims to analyze the response of patients who completed the treatment of chronic musculoskeletal pain with acupuncture through a retrospective cross-sectional observational study, with the analysis of 64 medical records of patients complaining of chronic musculoskeletal pain who received treatment with acupuncture in the period of January 2000 to January 2023 at the Paraná Acupuncture Studies Center (CESAC-PR). Data regarding the epidemiological profile, most recurrent complaints, response within the established deadline, time of evolution of painful conditions and symptomatic segment were collected and interpreted. As a result, among the 64 patients surveyed, 27 showed improvement after the 5th session, 22 showed worsening and 15 had no record in the medical records. Therefore, the epidemiological profile of the patients was in accordance with the literature. However, in relation to the variables analyzed together, such as gender, duration of pain, response to a specific number of acupuncture sessions and psychosomatic component, they did not provide statistically significant responses. Therefore, it is concluded that the main limitation of this study was the quantity of data provided.
