Resumo: | Functional training programs may help reduce elderly disabilities, falls, and emotional and social problems. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of an eight-week functional exercise program on aged women's instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) and one-foot stance balance. Irrespective of race and/or social condition, 7 community-dwelling elderly women (aged 71±8.1) were selected, being excluded those with cognitive impairment, acute or neurological diseases, spine or joint pain, labyrinth inflammatory disease, visual impairment, fractures in the previous year, and use of gait aid. All subjects were assessed by the Lawton IADL scale and the one-foot stance balance test, before and after the program. Exercises were performed three times a week and consisted of gait exercises in plantar flexion, dorsiflexion, alternation of sustained one-foot stance, sideways gait, gait with increased hip flexion, and tandem gait. Results show a functional improvement in IADL (p=0.042) as measured by the Lawton scale, and a trend towards better static one-foot stance balance, though not significant (p>;0.105). The proposed program of functional exercises may thus be said to bring about improvement in older women's functional performance and a trend towards improvement on static balance, suggesting its relevance to increase elderly women's autonomy. |

Programas de treino funcional podem colaborar na redução de incapacidades, quedas, problemas emocionais e sociais em idosos. O objetivo do estudo foi verificar o efeito de um programa de oito semanas de exercícios funcionais em idosas da comunidade, avaliando o impacto nas atividades instrumentais de vida diária (AIVD) e no equilíbrio unipodálico. Deste estudo quasi-experimental participaram sete idosas da comunidade (71±8,1 anos), sem distinção de raça e/ ou condição social, excluindo-se aquelas com alterações cognitivas, doenças agudizadas ou neurológicas, quadro álgico na coluna ou articulações, labirintite, distúrbios visuais não-compensados, fratura prévia no último ano e utilização de apoio para a marcha. Todas responderam ao questionário de Lawton e se submeteram ao teste de apoio unipodálico antes e depois do programa, administrado três vezes por semana. O programa consistia em exercícios de marcha em flexão plantar, dorsiflexão, permanência em alternância de apoio unipodálico, marcha lateral com flexão de quadril aumentada e marcha tandem. Os resultados indicam melhora (p=0,042) no nível funcional (índice de Lawton) após o programa e uma tendência à melhora no equilíbrio unipodálico, embora não-significante (p>;0,105). O programa de exercícios proposto produziu pois melhora no desempenho das AIVD e uma tendência à melhora do equilíbrio estático, sugerindo ser relevante para aprimorar a autonomia das idosas.
