resumoIntrodução: A Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidade, Incapacidade e Saúde considera os múltiplos aspectos da funcionalidade; acredita-se que essa ferramenta possa contribuir para avaliar atletas com incapacidades. Objetivo: Determinar o perfil funcional de jogadores de basquete em cadeira de rodas de acordo com o core set da Classificação Internacional de Funcionalidade, Incapacidade e Saúde para indivíduos com traumatismo da medula espinal (TME). Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo transversal com 12 atletas com TME, jogadores de basquete em cadeira de rodas. A funcionalidade foi classificada pela versão abreviada do core set para indivíduos com TME crônico, que contém 33 categorias. Estas foram consideradas válidas se apresentassem ao menos 20% dos atletas com algum grau de incapacidade (de acordo com os qualificadores da CIF). Resultados: Das 33 categorias avaliadas, 31 (93,9%) foram representativas para a amostra. Apenas as categorias b710 e e340 não foram consideradas válidas. Em sete categorias todos os atletas apresentaram algum grau de comprometimento (s120, d455, d465, d530, e115, e150 e e580). Porém, os maiores comprometimentos foram observados nas categorias: s120, d455, d465, e115 e e120. Conclusão: Os atletas apresentaram diferentes comprometimentos funcionais, entretanto tais limitações não os impedem de praticar a modalidade esportiva. (s120, d455, d465, d530, e115, e150 e e580). however, the largest impairment was observed in the categories: s120, d455, d465, e115 and e120. conclusion: the athletes had different functional impairments; however such limitations do not prevent them from practicing the sport.

Spinal cord injuries affect people’s daily activities and limit their mobility and participation in the community. Adapted sports improve functioning because they supplement the rehabilitation of people who need a wheelchair for mobility. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional performance of wheelchair basketball players with spinal cord injury. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 12 athletes. To evaluate their functional performance the Modified Barthel Index, the adapted version of Texas Fitness test, and the medicine ball test were applied. The correlation of functional dependence with other functional performance tests was performed by the nonparametric Spearman test. Results: Six athletes were classified as moderately dependent and six as mildly dependent. The average time for the adapted version of Texas Fitness test was 27.3 ± 3.8 seconds. The average distance for the medicine ball test was 5.2 ± 0.9 meters. We observed a strong negative correlation between the Modified Barthel Index and the adapted version of Texas Fitness test (r = -0.9193, p < 0.0001). Conclusion: The sample group presented as mildly to moderately dependent in carrying out the activities of daily living, with upper limb strength similar to what is described in the literature, but with less agility
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
