Advanced evidence that some manual therapies, <br>expanded physiotherapy specialty in the treatment of basic musculoskeletal disorders, <br>be complementary to physical exercises performed in cardiovascular rehabilitation, <br>studies that are very scarce in this area in Brazil. Objective: to evaluate the effect of a <br>pomping protocol on hemodynamic behavior during isometric exercise in the elderly. <br>Methodology: A prospective randomized controlled interventional study was carried <br>out. 503 elderly people were initially screened, of which 70 elderly were selected to <br>participate in two randomized sessions held on different days: one with a pomping <br>protocol based on Bienfait (1999) and another with a placebo protocol, totaling 140 <br>transactions. The behavior of blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) at rest for 5 <br>minutes and then during three minutes of isometric exercise with handgrip (EH101, <br>Camry) at 30% of the maximum voluntary contraction were adopted. Afterwards, the <br>pompage protocol or randomized placebo was treated for that specific session for 30 <br>minutes and immediately after intervention/placebo they were repeated as calculated <br>grouping. Results: The elderly had a mean age of 69 ± 1.0 years. Regarding BP values <br>(SBP,131±1.4 mmHg; DBP=83±1.6 mmHg), it is possible to observe that most of the <br>elderly were classified as pre-hypertensive, according to the Brazilian Guidelines on <br>Arterial Hypertension. (2020). We emphasize that there was a reduction in SBP only <br>in the pompage group (p &lt; 0.001), a reduction in DBP only in the pompage group in <br>the first minute (p=0.03) and in the third minute (p=0.04) and a reduction in HR in both <br>groups (p &lt; 0.001 and p = 0.02). Conclusion: The pompagens protocol reduced the <br>SBP of the elderly during isometric exercise with the handgrip and the DBP in the <br>recovery from isometric exercise, while there was no change in SBP in the placebo <br>group during isometrics and no change in DBP in the placebo group during recovery <br>from isometric exercise.</p> ER -
