Resumo

Objetivo: Avaliar a eficácia da Matricaria recutita Linn. (Camomila) na prevenção e controle da mucosite oral radioinduzida. Métodos: A amostra foi composta por 22 pacientes que foram divididos em três grupos. No grupo I (experimental) (n=7), os pacientes foram tratados com o gel de camomila a 3% durante todo o tratamento radioterápico; o grupo II (controle positivo) (n=7) fez o uso do gel de gluconato de clorexidina a 1% somente ao surgir a mucosite, até cessar a sintomatologia e o grupo III (experimental) (n=8) tratou a mucosite com gel de camomila a 3%, utilizando o mesmo protocolo proposto para o grupo II. Resultados: Os resultados não apontaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre os três grupos com (P>0,05). Porém, os dados descritivos indicam que o grupo II apresentou melhora clínica da mucosite oral em menor tempo de tratamento, enquanto no grupo III a melhora clínica da mucosite ocorreu em um período maior quando comparado aos demais grupos. Conclusão: A camomila não apresentou efeito profilático para o surgimento da mucosite oral, no entanto, mostrou-se eficaz em relação à diminuição da severidade no decorrer do tratamento na maioria dos pacientes.
