Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by musculoskeletal pain. The aim of this study was to synthesize scientific evidence on the effects of aquatic exercise programs on pain and quality of life in individuals with fibromyalgia. This review was carried out using the following databases in January 2024: Cochrane Library, PEDro, PubMed, SCOPUS, and Web of Science. Four clinical trials focusing on aquatic exercise as a treatment for patients with fibromyalgia were selected. These trials were published in English between 2019 and 2024. Pain recorded using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and quality of life with the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) or Fibromyalgia Impact on Quality of Life (FIQ) were the most commonly analyzed variables. This review was carried out according to the PRISMA statement and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024510219). The results in terms of pain and quality of life were positive. In conclusion, these findings support the incorporation of aquatic exercise into fibromyalgia physical therapy treatment. However, the benefits could be equivalent to those of other exercise modalities, underscoring the need for individualized adaptation to each patient's needs.
纤维肌痛是一种以肌肉骨骼疼痛为特征的慢性疾病。本研究的目的是综合关于水上运动项目对纤维肌痛患者疼痛和生活质量影响的科学证据。本综述于2024年1月使用以下数据库进行：考克兰图书馆、PEDro、PubMed、SCOPUS和科学网。选择了四项以水上运动作为纤维肌痛患者治疗方法的临床试验。这些试验在2019年至2024年期间以英文发表。使用视觉模拟量表（VAS）记录的疼痛以及使用简短36项健康调查（SF - 36）或纤维肌痛对生活质量的影响（FIQ）评估的生活质量是最常分析的变量。本综述按照PRISMA声明进行，并在国际前瞻性系统评价注册库（PROSPERO）中注册（注册号：CRD42024510219）。在疼痛和生活质量方面的结果是积极的。总之，这些发现支持将水上运动纳入纤维肌痛的物理治疗中。然而，其益处可能与其他运动方式相当，这突出了根据每个患者的需求进行个性化调整的必要性。
