Abstract
ObjectivesTo verify the rates of heat effectiveness generated by Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) in the resolution of dizziness in individuals diagnosed with Cervical Dizziness (CD). MethodsRandomized clinical trial was performed and samples from volunteers diagnosed with CD, divided into a Study Group (SG) and Control Group (CG). Patches containing CNT with thermotherapeutic effect were used in SG and inert patches in the CG. Treatment was performed over 30 days and measures of pain, dizziness and asymmetry of cervical muscle tension were evaluated over 60 days. ResultsPain, dizziness and asymmetry of cervical muscle tension were reduced in the SG. The variables analyzed in this study did not change in the CG. ConclusionOur results show that the therapeutic effect of heat was effective in the treatment of patients diagnosed with CD. We could also observe a clear interrelationship between pain and dizziness symptoms with the asymmetry of cervical muscle tension. Level of evidence1B.
