RESUMEN
Se efectuó un estudio longitudinal y controlado de 100 pacientes con osteoartrosis
generalizada, atendidos en el Servicio de Medicina Natural y Tradicional del Hospital
Provincial Docente Clinicoquirúrgico “Saturnino Lora Torres” de Santiago de Cuba,
desde enero hasta diciembre del 2010, a fin de evaluar la eficacia de los imanes
permanentes multipolares en el tratamiento del dolor crónico en los afectados. Estos
imanes se ubicaron y fijaron en diferentes puntos de acupunturas para aliviar la
dolencia. Los niveles de dolor se cuantificaron mediante la Escala Visual Análoga, por
sexo y rango de edades; se evaluaron a los 0, 30, 60 y 90 días durante la terapia. Se
demostró la factibilidad del uso de los imanes permanentes multipolares en el alivio del
dolor de los pacientes con osteoartrosis generalizada por ser simples, seguros, eficaces
y no inducir efectos adversos en el organismo.
