Introdução: O acidente vascular cerebral (AVC) é uma condição clínica prevalente e
debilitante que frequentemente resulta em deficiências motoras e cognitivas significativas.
A reabilitação pós-AVC é essencial para mitigar as sequelas do evento e otimizar a
autonomia e qualidade de vida dos doentes, com o objetivo de restabelecer a
funcionalidade prévia ao evento. Nos últimos anos, a pesquisa por intervenções
complementares às terapias convencionais tem aumentado com o intuito de proporcionar
ao doentes uma recuperação mais holística. A presente dissertação pretende avaliar a
viabilidade das intervenções com dança na reabilitação dos doentes com AVC, sintetizar os
impactos físicos, emocionais e sociais dessas intervenções e elaborar uma proposta de um
projeto de intervenção com dança, como complemento aos métodos tradicionais.
Métodos: Foi realizada uma revisão abrangente da literatura existente, com foco em
estudos que avaliaram o papel da dança na reabilitação pós-AVC. Foram procurados
artigos científicos nas bases de dados eletrónicas PubMed, Scopus e B-On e os estudos
foram selecionados com base nos critérios de inclusão e exclusão definidos.
Resultados: Foram incluídos doze estudos cujos protocolos de intervenção
apresentaram grande variabilidade nos estilos de dança usados, duração e frequência das
sessões e período da intervenção. Apesar disso, foram reportadas melhorias na função
motora, equilíbrio, espasticidade e, não menos importante, na saúde emocional e social
dos participantes.
Conclusão: Devido à heterogeneidade metodológica dos estudos incluídos, não foi
possível formar conclusões robustas e generalizáveis. Todavia, a dança mostrou ser uma
abordagem holística, segura e eficaz na reabilitação pós-AVC. Incentiva-se futuras
pesquisas com maior rigor metodológico para melhor compreensão dos mecanismos
através dos quais a dança facilita a recuperação das vítimas de AVC.
Introduction: Stroke is a prevalent and debilitating clinical condition that often results in significant motor and cognitive impairments. Post-stroke rehabilitation is essential to mitigate the event sequelae and optimize patients’ autonomy and quality of life, aiming to restore pre-event functionality. In recent years, the research for conventional therapies’ complementary interventions has increased, seeking to provide patients with a more holistic recovery. This dissertation aims to assess the feasibility of dance interventions in stroke rehabilitation, synthesize the physical, emotional, and social impacts of these interventions and propose a project of dance as a complement to traditional methods. Methods: A comprehensive review of the existing literature was conducted, focusing on studies that evaluated the role of dance in post-stroke rehabilitation. Scientific articles were searched in the electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, and B-On, and studies were selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Twelve studies were included, with intervention protocols showing considerable variability in dance styles used, session duration and frequency, and intervention periods. Despite these differences, improvements were reported in motor function, balance, spasticity, and, not least, in participants' emotional and social well-being. Conclusions: Due to the methodological heterogeneity of the included studies, robust and generalizable conclusions could not be drawn. Nonetheless, dance has proven to be a holistic, safe, and effective approach in post-stroke rehabilitation. Further research with greater methodological rigor is encouraged to better understand the mechanisms through which dance facilitates stroke recovery.
