Resumo

RESUMO: Objetivo: Analisar os efeitos da Fotobiomodulação (FBM) associada à Reabilitação Vestibular (RV) em adultos com sintomas vestibulares e zumbido, em comparação com a RV associada à FBM placebo, quanto à redução do incômodo do zumbido e à melhora da função vestibular, equilíbrio postural e acuidade visual dinâmica.

Método: Ensaio clínico randomizado, triplo-cego, com 20 voluntários diagnosticados com hipofunção vestibular e zumbido crônico. Os participantes foram alocados em dois grupos: grupo pesquisa (GP), submetido à RV com FBM ativa; e grupo controle (GC), submetido à RV com FBM placebo. Cada grupo realizou dez sessões, duas vezes por semana, durante cinco semanas. As avaliações pré e pós-intervenção incluíram: Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), Escala Visual Analógica (EVA), teste de Acuidade Visual Dinâmica (AVD) e posturografia. Os dados foram analisados pelos testes t de Student e Mann-Whitney (p<0,05).

Resultados: Na comparação entre os grupos no momento pós- intervenção , O GP apresentou melhora significativa na EVA para zumbido (p=0,046), nos domínios funcional (p=0,003), emocional (p=0,002) e total (p=0,000) do THI. O parâmetro Análise Sensorial da Função Vestibular mostrou diferença significante nos momentos pré e pós- terapia (p=0,003) apenas no GP. A EVA Sintomas Vestibulares, os escores do DHI e o Índice de Equilíbrio Composto apresentaram melhora nos dois grupos, sem diferença estatística.

Conclusão: A FBM associada à RV reduziu significativamente o incômodo do zumbido e apresentou um desempenho superior na Análise Sensorial da Função Vestibular . A RV isolada não demonstrou efeito na redução do zumbido.
