Resumo: This is a descriptive correlational study involving 16 elderly diabetics of both sexes, with the objective of evaluating the presence of distal polyneuropathy through an evaluation protocol. A moderate negative correlation of the sensory index assessed by the esthesiometry with the grip strength and ankle dorsiflexor muscles was found, and a strong positive correlation was found between the sensory indices in the feet. All the elderly were instructed on exercises to improve muscle strength and care for prevent ulcerative lesions in the feet, as well as warned about the consequences of various orders on this problem: impairment of other fundamental bodily functions such as balance and gait, coursing with the reduction of functional mobility, which may negatively impact the degree of independence and quality of life of these patients.

Se encontró una correlación negativa moderada del índice sensorial evaluado por la estosiometría con la fuerza de asimiento y de los músculos dorsiflexores del tobillo, y una correlación positiva fuerte entre los índices sensoriales en los pies. Todos los ancianos fueron orientados en cuanto a los ejercicios para mejorar la fuerza muscular y los cuidados para prevenir lesiones ulcerativas en los pies, así como alertados sobre las consecuencias de varias órdenes de ese problema: comprometimiento de otras funciones corporales fundamentales, como el equilibrio y la marcha, cursando con la reducción de la movilidad funcional, lo que puede impactar negativamente en el grado de independencia y en la calidad de vida de estos pacientes.Trata-se de um estudo descritivo correlacional, envolvendo 16 idosos diabéticos de ambos os sexos, com o objetivo de avaliar a presença da polineuropatia distal através de um protocolo de avaliação. Foi encontrada uma correlação negativa moderada do índice sensorial avaliado pela estesiometria com a força de preensão e dos músculos dorsiflexores do tornozelo, e uma correlação positiva forte entre os índices sensoriais nos pés. Todos os idosos foram orientados quanto aos exercícios para melhorar a força muscular e os cuidados para prevenir lesões ulcerativas nos pés, assim como alertados sobre as consequências de várias ordens desse problema: comprometimento de outras funções corporais fundamentais, como o equilíbrio e a marcha, cursando com a redução da mobilidade funcional, o que pode impactar negativamente no grau de independência e na qualidade de vida destes pacientes. Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2018-03-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/3988810.23925/2176-901X.2018v21i1p355-376Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 21 n. 1 (2018); 355-3762176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/39888/26963Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Kairós : Gerontologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, Michele Marchetti dosSoethe, Michely da SilvaSoares, Antonio Vinicius2019-08-21T17:33:06Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/39888Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2019-08-21T17:33:06Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
