Abstract

Objective. To observe the main effects of aquatic aerobic exercises in individuals with cerebral palsy. Method. A systematic review was carried out between March 2020 and November 2020, using the MEDLINE (Pubmed), PEDro, Cochrane Library, LILACS and Scielo databases. The review was registered with PROSPERO under number CRD42020207445. The articles found in the search were stored in the Rayyan QCRI software. After storage, the selection of studies was carried out by two researchers independently and blindly, through the evaluation of titles and abstracts. After the inclusion of the studies, a narrative and descriptive analysis was carried out. Results. 122 articles were found in the initial search in the databases. Of these, 2 of the articles were found in duplicate, with 120 studies remaining. In the stage of selection by independent peers, blindly, 4 articles were included, and 91 articles were excluded. The researchers were in a conflict of decision in 15 articles and were in doubt about inclusion in 10 articles. The 25 articles were read in full and reviewed by a third researcher, including 1 more article, totaling 5 articles selected for review. Conclusion. Through this review we observed that aquatic aerobic exercises can promote benefits for children and adolescents with cerebral palsy. However, further studies and clinical trials are needed to prove the effectiveness of this type of intervention and its specific benefits.
