Previous issue date: 2012-12-13 / The aim of this study was to investigate the immediate effects of laser therapy on neuromuscular performance in healthy subjects after a muscle fatigue. This is a clinical trial, controlled, randomized, blinded, attended by 80 volunteers of both genders, healthy, with ages between 18 to 28 years. Initially the volunteers performed an initial evaluation (EV1) using electromyography in the biceps muscle, associated with assessment in isokinetic dynamometry with 5 concentric contractions (60 ?/s) for elbow flexion. The subjects were randomly allocated into 4 groups: G1 (control, n = 20), G2 (placebo, n = 20), G3 (pre-fatigue laser, n = 20), and G4 (post fatigue laser, n = 20). The muscular fatigue protocol had 30 concentric isokinetic contractions (120 ?/s). We used a 808 nm laser, power of 100 mW, applied at the belly of the biceps muscle. After the speeches the volunteers performed a final evaluation (EV2). Test was applied to two-way ANOVA with post hoc Turkey, with a significance level of 5%. There was no significant difference in electromyographic evaluation. In dynamometric evaluation showed a drop in peak torque, peak torque normalized to body weight (p <0.001) and average power (p <0, 05) between the initial and final evaluations in control. Among the groups there was a significant difference between the control and the other groups in relation to peak torque (p <0.05), peak torque to body weight (p <0.001) and average power (p <0.05). Therefore, the low intensity laser therapy does not alter the immediate neuromuscular performance after fatigue / O objetivo desse estudo foi investigar os efeitos imediatos da laserterapia sobre o desempenho neuromuscular em sujeitos saud?veis, ap?s um protocolo de fadiga muscular. Trata-se de um ensaio cl?nico, controlado, randomizado e cego, no qual participaram 80 volunt?rios de ambos os g?neros, ativos, com faixa et?ria entre 18 ? 28 anos. Inicialmente os volunt?rios realizaram uma avalia??o inicial (AV1), utilizando a eletromiografia do b?ceps braquial, associado ? avalia??o por dinamometria isocin?tica, com 5 contra??es conc?ntricas (60?/s) para flex?o de cotovelo. Os sujeitos foram alocados randomicamente em 4 grupos: o G1 (n=20), controle, G2 (n=20), placebo, o G3 (n=20), laser pr?-fadiga e o G4 (n=20), laser p?s-fadiga. O protocolo de fadiga muscular possu?a incluiu 30 contra??es isocin?ticas conc?ntricas (120?/s). Foi utilizado um laser de 808 nm, pot?ncia de 100 mW, energia total de 20 J, aplicado no ventre do m?sculo b?ceps braquial. Ap?s as interven??es os volunt?rios realizaram uma avalia??o final (AV2). Foi aplicado o teste de Anova two-way, com post-hoc de Turkey, com n?vel de signific?ncia de 5%. N?o existiu diferen?a significativa na avalia??o eletromiogr?fica. Na avalia??o dinamom?trica observou-se uma queda do Pico de Torque, Pico de torque normalizado pelo peso corporal (p<0,001) e Pot?ncia m?dia (p<0,05), entre as avalia??es inicial e final no grupo controle. Observou-se diferen?a significativa entre o controle e os demais grupos, em rela??o ao pico de torque (p<0,05), pico de torque pelo peso corporal (p<0,001) e pot?ncia m?dia (p<0,05). Assim, a laserterapia de baixa intensidade n?o alterou o desempenho neuromuscular ap?s a fadiga nesses sujeitos
