| Study | Type Tissue | Device | Parameters | N˚ Sessions | Results |
| Kumaran; Watson, 2015 | Healthy thigh | Indiba Active 902 | Time not mentioned CAP2/RES1 Intensity High/moderate/low | 2 | Tip CAP2 and RES1 increased the temperature immediately after application and sustained the increase after 45 min. |
| Kumaran et al., 2017 | Healthy calf muscle | Indiba Active 902 442 Khz | 5 min CAP2 10 min RES1 Intensity High/moderate/low | 5 | Both high and low doses of Cret3 increase the volume of deep blood flow. Flow volume and intensity increased at the high dose. OCP does not increase volume or intensity in deep tissues. |
| Tashiro et al., 2017 | Lumbar region healthy men | Indiba VR Pro Recovery HCR 902 | 5 min CAP2 10 min RES1 Moderate intensity | 3 | Total hemoglobin saturation and oxyhemoglobin were higher in the Cret3 and hot pack groups compared to placebo. At superficial temperatures, 10 mm and 20 mm deep, the Cret3 and hot pack group had higher temperatures compared to the placebo group. |
| Duñabeitia et al., 2018 | Healthy calf muscle | Capenergy CIM200 Tecar | 10 min RES1 10 min CAP2 | Not mentioned | Physiologically there were no significant changes in the Tecar group and the control group. Some biomechanical parameters related to gait improved more quickly with tecar application compared to the control group. |
| Kumaran e Watson, 2018 | Knee healthy | Indiba Activ 902 442 KHz | 5 min CAP2 10 min RES1 Intensidade baixa moderada alta | 4 | Temperature in the immediate aftermath fluctuated little. Blood flow increased significantly at high dosage and was maintained after 20 min. At low intensity the flow increased, but not significantly. |
| Yokota et al., 2018 | Healthy quadriceps | Indiba ® activ Pro Recovery HCR902 448 KHz | 5 min CAP2 10 min RES1 Moderate intensity | 1 | Quadriceps muscle flexibility returned to baseline faster in the Cret3 group. The change in temperature superficial foi de 5.1˚C após aplicação. |
| Bito et al., 2019 | Achilles tendon | Indiba | 5 min CAP2 5 min RES1 5 min RES1 Moderate intensity | 2 | Total hb4 and oxy-hb4 increased significantly after the CRet3 intervention and lasted 30 minutes after the intervention; There was no significant variation in tendon stretching. |
| Clijsen et al., 2019 | Healthy forearm | T-Plus 0.5 MHz | 8 min CAP2 Moderate intensity 8 min RES1 High intensity | 3 | RES1 mode had a significant increase in skin microcirculation perfusion. In intramuscular blood flow, RES1 mode had a significant increase in the proximal 1/3 of the forearm. |
| Bito et al., 2020 | Rib cage | Indiba ® activ Pro Recovery HCR902 448 KHz | 5 min CAP2 10 min RES1 | 1 | Tecar significantly increased rib cage mobility. The temperature at 10 and 20 mm depth increased. |
| Navarro-Ledesma; Gonzalez-Muñoz, 2021 | Supraspinatus tendon | Indiba | 10 min CAP2 Moderate intensity 10 min RES1 High intensity | 9 | Tecar increases tendon elasticity compared to regular massage with the same electrodes. |
| Mohamadi et al., 2021 | Ischius tibialis muscle | TecaTen 448 Khz | 15 min CAP2 | 3 | Tecar with static stretching increased hamstring flexibility when compared to static stretching. |
| Monaretti et al., 2021 | Abdomen skin | BTL-6000 TR-Therapy | 10 min CAP2 High intensity | 1 | In histological analysis, the reticular dermis presents thicker and more organized bundles of collagen fibers, no infiltration of inflammatory cells or tissue damage was observed. |
| De Sousa-De Sousa et al., 2022 | Upper limbs | INDIBA Active 701 | 20 min RES1 Moderate intensity | 1 | The findings do not suggest significant improvement in the variables examined. The use of Tecartherapy in pre-competition is not recommended. |
