Equilíbrio Musculosquelético, Acidentes por Quedas, IdosoResumo
Objetivo: Verificar o efeito de um programa de treinamento de equilíbrio, de curto período, com exercícios específicos e sem associação de treinamentos sistematizados de força muscular, em um grupo de mulheres idosas residentes na comunidade. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo piloto com seis mulheres que participaram de uma intervenção visando o treinamento de equilíbrio. Os testes de campo utilizados foram: “Escala de Equilíbrio Funcional de Berg – Versão Brasileira”, Timed Up & Go, Chair Stand, e Marcha Tandem. Entrevistas foram realizadas sobre percepção de saúde e medo de quedas. O treinamento consistiu em atividades realizadas em grupo, com tarefas isoladas e circuitos fechados. Foi realizado duas vezes por semana, com uma hora de duração em cada dia, por um período de oito semanas. Resultados: Verificou-se que houve melhora no equilíbrio a partir da análise dos resultados obtidos. Conclusão: Um treinamento de equilíbrio específico, não sistematizado, breve e realizado em um grupo de mulheres idosas da comunidade mostrou ter um efeito na melhora das medidas de equilíbrio, porém ainda se faz necessário avaliar o impacto isolado do treino de força sistematizado sobre as medidas de equilíbrio.
