Resumo: Aims: acupuncture is increasingly a technique used in users with various pathologies, and especially those who are accompanied by chronic pain. This research aimed to analyze the effect of non-pharmacological acupuncture and electroacupuncture therapy for the control of chronic pain in users with medical diagnosis of irradiation vertebral syndrome.Methods: a research was conducted with two evaluation moments: before and after non-pharmacological acupuncture and electroacupuncture therapy sessions. A questionnaire with variables of sociodemographic and clinical characterization, the Brief Pain Inventory and Short Form 6 Dimensions (SF-6D) was used.Results: forty-three users participated in the study, and statistically significant differences were found from moment 1 to moment 2 of evaluation, either in the pain severity domain (p<0.01) or in the pain interference domain in daily functioning (p <0.01), as well as in the different dimensions of SF-6D, statistically significant differences were found.Conclusions: non-pharmacological acupuncture and electroacupuncture therapy in users diagnosed with irradiation and chronic pain have contributed to decrease pain severity, pain interference in daily functioning and improvement of health-related quality of life.

Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo geral analisar o efeito da terapêutica não farmacológica de acupuntura e eletroacupuntura para o controle da dor crónica, em usuários com diagnóstico médico de síndrome vertebral com irradiação.Métodos: foi realizada uma pesquisa com dois momentos de avaliação – antes e após sessões de terapêutica não farmacológica de acupuntura e eletroacupuntura. Utilizou-se um questionário com variáveis de caracterização sociodemográfica e clínica, o Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) e Short Form 6 Dimensions (SF-6D).Resultados: participaram no estudo 43 usuários, tendo sido encontradas diferenças estaticamente significativas, do momento 1 para o momento 2 de avaliação, quer no domínio da severidade da dor (p<0,01), quer no domínio interferência da dor no funcionamento diário (p<0,01), assim como nas diferentes dimensões do SF-6D foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas.Conclusões: salienta-se que a terapêutica não farmacológica de acupuntura e eletroacupuntura em usuários com diagnóstico de síndrome vertebral com irradiação e dor crónica contribuiu para a diminuição da severidade da dor, da interferência da dor no funcionamento diário e melhoria da qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2021-06-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/scientiamedica/article/view/3930410.15448/1980-6108.2021.1.39304Scientia Medica; Vol. 31 No. 1 (2021): Single Volume; e39304Scientia Medica; v. 31 n. 1 (2021): Volume Único; e393041980-61081806-556210.15448/1980-6108.2021.1reponame:Scientia Medica (Porto Alegre.
