RESUMO:

Aim: 1)To develop and to patent a device for digital measurement, therapeutic device and remote monitoring of joint parameters of the ankle joint and 2) To evaluate the effects of a supervised exercise program for strengthening the calf muscle in physical performance, range of motion and myoelectric activity of the ankle joint, cardiovascular hemodynamics and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in individuals with chronic venous insufficiency. Methodos: The study is composed of two types of integrated research modalities: 1) Technological development and patent deposit of a device for evaluation of joint parameters and 2) Controlled randomized clinical trial with blinded evaluator. Results: 1) Creation of a product of technological innovation applied to health, called: “Digital Meter Device, Therapeutic Equipment and Remote Monitoring of Articular Parameters” With filing of the patent at INPI (BR 10 2018 016524 0), 2) Elaboration of an exercise protocol for strengthening the calf muscles, directed to individuals with CVI and,  3) Randomized clinical trial, in progress. Conclusion: The present study provided the creation of a prototype, portable and precise, for angular evaluation, therapeutic training and remote monitoring to be used in patients with CVI. Contributing, therefore, to the improvement in the field of technological innovation in health, reducing the lack of equipment to evaluate human movement. In addition, the preliminary results of the randomized clinical trial demonstrated an improvement in physical performance and a tendency to decrease myoelectric activity in treated individuals.
