Resumo: | This study aims to assess the effect of aquatic physiotherapy for balance and functional capacity of elderly. This is a clinical, prospective, longitudinal study with elderly people enrolled in a group of hypertensive and diabetic patients (n= 11). The balance was assessed using the Tinetti test and the functional capacity through the 6-minute walk test. The intervention consisted of 3 weekly sessions of 40 minutes each of aquatic physiotherapy during 2 months. Pre and post intervention tests were performed, including with a control group. The statistical analysis was performed using SPSS-16 software. The quantitative variables were assessed by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Face the normality, the paired T-test was utilized with a significance level of 0.05 The experimental group presented significant differences (p 0.05). However, it was noted an improvement in the post-intervention results. The group studied did not present significant improvements in regarding the functional capacity, but the aquatic physiotherapy statistically improved the balance of the elderly who participated of the study. In this regard, the hydrotherapy can be included in health promotion and disease prevention programs, minimizing the impact of the aging process. |

Trata-se de um estudo clínico, prospectivo e de delineamento longitudinal com idosos cadastrados em um grupo de hipertensos e diabéticos (n= 11). O equilíbrio foi avaliado por meio do teste de Tinetti e a capacidade funcional foi avaliada através do teste de caminhada de 6 minutos. A intervenção consistiu de 3 sessões semanais de fisioterapia aquática com duração de 40 minutos cada, por um período de dois meses. Foram realizados testes pré e pós-intervenção, com inclusão de grupo-controle. A análise estatística foi realizada com auxílio do software SPSS-16. As variáveis quantitativas foram avaliadas pelo teste de normalidade Kolmogorov-Smirnov. Diante da normalidade, foi utilizado o teste T pareado com nível de significância de 0,05. O grupo experimental apresentou diferenças significativas (p 0.05). Entretanto, observou-se melhora nos resultados pós-intervenção. O grupo estudado não apresentou melhoras significativas com relação à capacidade funcional, porém a fisioterapia aquática melhorou estatisticamente o equilíbrio dos idosos participantes. Neste sentido, a hidroterapia pode ser incluída em programas de promoção à saúde e prevenção de doenças, minimizando o impacto do processo de envelhecimento.Universidade Cesumar - UniCesumar2017-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionEnsaio clínicoapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/article/view/589210.17765/1983-1870.2017v10n2p331-338Saúde e Pesquisa; Vol 10 No 2 (2017): maio/ago.; 331-338Saúde e Pesquisa; v. 10 n. 2 (2017): maio/ago.; 331-3382176-9206reponame:Saúde e Pesquisa (Online)instname:Cesumar Diretoria de Pesquisainstacron:CESUMARporhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/article/view/5892/3060Siqueira, Alisson FelipeRebesco, Denise BarthAmaral, Franciele AparecidaMaganhini, Claudia BernardesDall Agnol, Simone MaderFurmann, MeiriéllyMascarenhas, Luis Paulo Gomesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-07-01T13:03:09Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/5892Revistahttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesqPUBhttps://periodicos.unicesumar.edu.br/index.php/saudpesq/oainaep@cesumar.br2176-92061983-1870opendoar:2022-07-01T13:03:09Saúde e Pesquisa (Online) - Cesumar Diretoria de Pesquisafalse |
