Background: With postural stability, the body is capable of performing functions directed to the performance of a task. Directional movements are examples of function that require balance to be effective. The relationship between functional capacities assists to understand the transfer of skills, and for that, it is important to gather information about the relationship between postural balance and movements of change of direction. Hypothesis: First, healthy young individuals do not show relation between their functional capacities for static postural stability and dynamics. Second, there is a relationship between dynamic stability and movements of change of direction, based on motor learning between tasks performed under functional capacities involving voluntary motor acts. Methods: 32 healthy men performed tests of static balance, dynamic balance, and performance in change of direction movements. Spearman correlations were made with the stabilometric variables of the Center of Pressure (CoP) oscillation, mean of the distances (cm) of excursion, the simplified SEBT test, time (ms) of completion of movements of changes of direction, in the Y-shaped test. Results: Random correlations between the CoP variables and the directions of the simplified SEBT, not characterizing a significant relationship, suggesting that they are specific tasks, given the requirement for different perceptual skills. Significant correlations between the directions of the SEBT and movements of change of direction, mainly for planned configuration, justified by the similarity of response to the demands of the movement, a voluntary motor action. In reactive directional movements, other perceptual skills are required for better performance, the relationship with dynamic balance is not exclusive. Conclusions: There is no relationship between static and dynamic balance in healthy young people, however, there is a relationship between dynamic balance and planned change of direction movements.

O objetivo deste trabalho é conhecer, descrever e problematizar o referenciamento de usuários ao Centro de Atenção Psicossocial Álcool e Drogas (CAPS ad) em Teresina (PI). Estudo descritivo realizado no CAPS ad após a investigação de 272 prontuários do período de julho de 2013 a janeiro de 2014. Identificou-se um pequeno número de usuários oriundos da Estratégia Saúde da Família (2,94%), enquanto que a demanda espontânea e as indicações de amigos e familiares somam 53,3%, além de se ter constatado que existem vários pontos emissores de referenciamento para o usuário. Tais resultados sugerem a necessidade de uma avaliação do trabalho realizado pela Estratégia Saúde da Família frente a esta demanda, a fim de se problematizar a sua falta de integração com o CAPS ad com vistas em ações resolutivas da vigilância em saúde, as quais controlem os entraves ao referenciamento dos usuários.
