Resumo: | Functional mobility can be described as the physical and motor capacity that an individual has to move around and perform daily activities that allow their autonomy; however, gradual aging causes a reduction in functional mobility, reducing the quality of life of the elderly and compromising their health. The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of a physical exercise program on functional mobility in the elderly of an extension project of the State University of Minas Gerais Divinópolis Unit, describing its aspects in measuring the risk of falls through Time get up and go test (TUGT). This is a “before and after” longitudinal analytical study, in which data from a group of individuals were recorded using a specific and validated questionnaire for this purpose. This research, which evaluated the mobility of participants before and after a physical exercise program, used the participant as self-control. Study participants were eleven elderly women with a mean age of 66.81 years (± 6.18); all female. The main results indicate that the impairment of functional mobility aggravates the physical impacts suffered by the elderly through falls; social and environmental aspects can motivate the elderly to maintain long-term physical exercise programs. It is concluded that a consistent physical exercise routine can contribute to the maintenance or improvement of functional mobility in old age, considering the strengthening of muscle tissue and flexibility gain, which contribute to a better balance and support capacity of the body. |

El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la influencia de un programa de ejercicio físico en la movilidad funcional en ancianos de un proyecto de extensión de la Unidad Divinópolis de la Universidad Estadual de Minas Gerais, describiendo sus aspectos en la medición del riesgo de caídas a través de Time get up and go prueba (TUGT). Se trata de un estudio analítico longitudinal “antes y después”, en el que se registraron datos de un grupo de individuos mediante un cuestionario específico y validado para tal fin. Esta investigación, que evaluó la movilidad de los participantes antes y después de un programa de ejercicio físico, utilizó al participante como autocontrol. Los participantes del estudio fueron once mujeres mayores con una edad media de 66,81 años (± 6,18); todas mujeres. Los principales resultados indican que el deterioro de la movilidad funcional agrava los impactos físicos que sufren las personas mayores a través de las caídas; Los aspectos sociales y ambientales pueden motivar a las personas mayores a mantener programas de ejercicio físico a largo plazo. Se concluye que una rutina de ejercicio físico consistente puede contribuir al mantenimiento o mejora de la movilidad funcional en la vejez, considerando el fortalecimiento del tejido muscular y la ganancia de flexibilidad, que contribuyen a un mejor equilibrio y capacidad de soporte del cuerpo.A mobilidade funcional pode ser descrita como a capacidade física e motora que um indivíduo dispõe para se locomover e realizar atividades cotidianas que permitam a sua autonomia; entretanto, o envelhecimento gradativo provoca a redução da mobilidade funcional, reduzindo a qualidade de vida do idoso e comprometendo sua saúde. O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a influência de um programa de exercício físico na mobilidade funcional em idosos de um projeto de extensão da Universidade do Estado de Minas Gerais Unidade Divinópolis, descrevendo seus aspectos na mensuração do risco de quedas através do Time get up and go test (TUGT). Trata-se de um estudo analítico longitudinal tipo “antes e depois”, em que foram registrados os dados de um grupo de indivíduos utilizando questionário específico e validado para essa finalidade. Esta pesquisa, que avaliou a mobilidade dos participantes antes e após um programa de exercício físico, utilizou o próprio participante como controle de si mesmo. Os participantes do estudo foram onze idosas com idade média de 66,81 anos (±6,18); todas do sexo feminino. Os principais resultados indicam que o comprometimento da mobilidade funcional agrava os impactos físicos sofridos pelo idoso mediante queda; aspectos sociais e ambientais podem motivar os idosos a se manterem em programas de exercícios físicos no longo prazo. Conclui-se que uma rotina consistente de exercícios físicos pode contribuir para a manutenção ou melhora da mobilidade funcional na terceira idade, considerando o fortalecimento do tecido muscular e do ganho de flexibilidade, que contribuem para uma melhor capacidade de equilíbrio e sustentação do corpo.Research, Society and Development2021-12-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2305110.33448/rsd-v10i15.23051Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 15; e495101523051Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 15; e495101523051Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 15; e4951015230512525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/23051/20535Copyright (c) 2021 Thamy Ramana Moreira Prado; Juscelino de Souza Borges Neto; Larissa da Silva Lemos; Juliana Mara Flores Bicalho; Gustavo Henrique Oliveira; Matheus Antônio Guimarães; Patrícia Aparecida Tavares; Rauno Álvaro de Paula Símolahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPrado, Thamy Ramana MoreiraBorges Neto, Juscelino de Souza Lemos, Larissa da SilvaBicalho, Juliana Mara FloresOliveira, Gustavo HenriqueGuimarães, Matheus Antônio Tavares, Patrícia Aparecida Símola, Rauno Álvaro de Paula2021-12-06T10:13:53Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/23051Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:42:02.422270Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
