Resumo: | Introduction: Scrambler therapy is a novel, non-invasive pain modifying technique that utilizes transcutaneous electrical stimulation of pain fibers with the intent of re-organizing maladaptive signaling pathways. Objective: Evaluate the benefits of Scrambler therapy to manage the intensity of pain in oncologic patients. Method: Integrative literature review based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) in the electronic databases LILACS, PEDro, SciELO and PubMed. The descriptors “Scrambler therapy”, “cancer”, “pain” were randomly combined in addition to the Boolean operators AND, OR in Portuguese, English and Spanish with no time limitation. Results: For this review, 15 articles were found relevant. The Scrambler therapy machine is based on 5 artificial neurons controlled by an optimized algorithm to provide safety and effectiveness. The hardware receives information from the algorithm that creates the strings of “non-pain,” and processes them by transforming into potential flows of synthetic action (i.e. created by technology) functionally compatible with endogenous flows. Pain scrambler therapy had a potential to decrease pain in cancer patients. Conclusion: The positive findings from preliminary studies with Scrambler therapy endorses the benefits this device provides to manage oncologic pain. |

Objetivo: Estudiar si la Scrambler therapy influye en la intensidad del dolor en pacientes con cáncer. Método: Revisión integradora de la Literatura según la Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), mediante búsqueda realizada en las bases de datos LILACS, PEDro, SciELO y PubMed, utilizando las palabras clave “terapia Scrambler”, “cáncer”, “dolor”, así como el uso de los operadores booleanos AND y OR, en portugués, inglés y español, sin límite de tiempo. Resultados: Se incluyeron 15 artículos relevantes para la revisión, que muestran una reducción en la intensidad del dolor. La Scrambler therapy se basa en cinco neuronas artificiales controladas por un algoritmo optimizado para proporcionar seguridad y eficacia. El hardware recibe información del algoritmo que crea las cadenas de “no dolor” y las procesa transformándolas en flujos de potenciales de acción sintéticos (es decir, creados por la tecnología) funcionalmente compatibles con los endógenos. Conclusión: Los resultados positivos encontrados en los estudios preliminares con la Scrambler therapy indican beneficios en el control del dolor por cáncer.Introdução: A Scrambler therapy é uma nova e não invasiva modalidade de eletroanalgesia com a intenção de organizar a má adaptação dos sinais elétricos de nervos periféricos. Objetivo: Avaliar o benefício clínico da Scrambler therapy no controle de intensidade da dor em pacientes oncológicos. Método: Revisão da literatura conforme a metodologia Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) nas bases de dados eletrônicas LILACS, PEDro, SciELO e PubMed. Foram combinados aleatoriamente os descritores: “Scrambler therapy”, “cancer”, “pain”, assim como o uso dos operadores booleanos AND e OR, em português, inglês e espanhol, sem limite de tempo. Resultados: Foram incluídos 15 estudos que, após avaliação crítica, demonstraram benefício clínico na redução na intensidade da dor. A Scrambler therapy é baseada em cinco neurônios artificiais controlados por um algoritmo otimizado para fornecer segurança e eficácia. O hardware recebe informações do algoritmo que cria as sequências de caracteres “não-dor” e as processa, transformando-as em fluxos potenciais de ação sintéticos (isto é, criados pela tecnologia) funcionalmente compatíveis com os potenciais endógenos. Conclusão: Os resultados positivos encontrados nos estudos preliminares com a Scrambler therapy indicam benefícios no controle da dor oncológica.INCA2022-03-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/165610.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2022v68n1.1656Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 68 No. 1 (2022): Jan./Feb./Mar.; e-191656Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 68 Núm. 1 (2022): ene./feb./mar.; e-191656Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 68 n. 1 (2022): jan./fev./mar.; e-1916562176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporenghttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1656/1591https://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1656/1928https://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1656/2430Copyright (c) 2022 Revista Brasileira de Cancerologiahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRezende, Laura Ferreira de Vilas Boas, Vanessa Fonseca Carvalho, Regiane Luz Lenzi, Juliana2022-11-25T18:35:33Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1656Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2022-11-25T18:35:33Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false |
