Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) applied before a fatigue protocol through the effects on the electrical activation in the quadriceps muscle in patients with HF. Fourteen patients with the diagnosis of heart failure (HF) were selected for this double-blind, crossover type clinical trial. These participants have attended to a familiarization, LLLT, and placebo sessions, totaling three visits. The LLLT was applied in the quadriceps muscle (850 nm, 5 J per diode). The fatigue protocol consisted of concentric and eccentric isokinetic contractions (cc/ec) until exhaustion or up to 50 cc/ec. The muscular fatigue was evaluated with surface electromyography, by the analysis of integral, median frequency, and entropy. Only one application of LLLT is not able to decrease skeletal muscle activation in patients with HF. There was no reduction of muscle fatigue among the proposed protocols. Single LLLT session has no effect on the reduction of skeletal muscle fatigue in patients with HF.
