Resumen
[ES]Objetivo: Identificar, evaluar de forma crítica y reunir las principales evidencias disponibles en la actualidad sobre la efectividad de las ondas de choque en la fascitis plantar.
Método: Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en las bases de datos Pubmed, PEDro y Scopus, con los descriptores "Plantar fasciitis", "Physiotherapy" y "Shockwave".
Resultados: Tras la revisión de 372 artículos, finalmente se analizaron 10 atendiendo a los criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Estos estudios fueron clasificados en cuatro grupos según el tipo de intervención.
Conclusiones: Existe una evidencia sólida de que la terapia de ondas de choque es más efectiva que el efecto placebo. Existe una evidencia sólida de que la fisioterapia convencional es más efectiva que las ondas de choque aunque queda evidenciada la efectividad de las mismas. Hay evidencia insuficiente de que la terapia de ondas de choque es más efectiva que la fasciotomía plantar y que la inyección de plasma.
[EN] Objective: Identify, assess critically and gather main evidences currently available on the effectiveness of the shockwaves in patients with plantar fasciitis. Method: A literature review was performed in the databases Pubmed, PEDro and Scopus, using "Plantar fasciitis", "Physiotherapy" and "Shockwave" as keywords. Results: 372 studies were found after the search, of which 10 were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. These studies were classified into four groups attending to the type of intervention. Conclusions: There is solid evidence that shockwave therapy is more effective than the effect placebo. However, there is solid evidence that conventional physiotherapy is more effective than shockwaves although the effectiveness of the same ones remains demonstrated. On the other hand, there is insufficient evidence that shockwave therapy is more effective than plantar fasciotomy and that injection of plasma.
