Resumen
El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la morfología del músculo multífido cervical y su repercusión en el equilibrio postural en pacientes post-ictus. Se llevó a cabo un estudio piloto con una muestra de conveniencia de 24 voluntarios de 67 ± 8.5 años (12 con hemiparesia debido a un ictus, 12 sanos) para este estudio. Los resultados medidos fueron el grosor del músculo multífido utilizando ultrasonografía, la prueba Timed Up and Go (TUG) y la escala de equilibrio de Berg (BBS). No se encontraron diferencias significativas en los valores de ultrasonografía entre los lados afectados y no afectados en los pacientes post-ictus. Del mismo modo, no hubo diferencias significativas entre el lado no afectado de los pacientes post-ictus y el lado dominante del grupo de control (p > 0.05). Además, no se identificaron correlaciones significativas en los pacientes post-ictus entre las variables ultrasonográficas de los músculos multífidos y el resultado principal. En conclusión, nuestro estudio no encontró diferencias significativas en la morfología del músculo multífido cervical entre individuos sanos y pacientes post-ictus en relación con el equilibrio postural. La naturaleza exploratoria de nuestro estudio limita la capacidad para sacar conclusiones definitivas.
