Resumo: The elderly population have suffered more and more changes in the performance of motor skills, associated with active daily life and degenerative changes. This case study aims to develop an ergonomic analysis of the assistive devices during the gaiting action of an elderly woman. The two assistive devices analyzed achieved their practical function, however, since the objective of the elderly woman is the discharge of weight, it was concluded that the Lofstrand crutch was the best device in terms of ease to use.

Este estudo de caso tem por objetivo desenvolver uma análise ergonômica dos dispositivos auxiliares durante o processo de marcha de uma idosa. Os dois dispositivos auxiliares analisados cumpriram sua função prática, contudo, como o objetivo da idosa é a descarga de peso, concluiu-se que a muleta Lofstrand foi o melhor dispositivo para uso.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2019-12-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/article/view/3227010.5433/2236-2207.2019v10n3p117Projetica; v. 10 n. 3 (2019); 117-1282236-2207reponame:Projética Revista Científica de Designinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/article/view/32270/26525Copyright (c) 2019 Projeticainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSouza, Mikaela deRenner, Jacinta Sidegum2021-10-06T17:39:31Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/32270Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/PUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/projetica/oai||projetica@uel.br2236-22072236-2207opendoar:2021-10-06T17:39:31Projética Revista Científica de Design - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false
