“…A percepção dos idosos em relação aos fatores de risco para as quedas existe, mas, muitas vezes, não são evitados, pois o indivíduo considera o "se cuidar" como uma arma infalível na prevenção, o que traz à tona o fenômeno da invisibilidade de alguns riscos impostos à saúde (5) . No que se refere aos familiares, estudo transversal incluindo 89 cuidadores informais de idosos que sofreram FFP aponta que 57,3% dos cuidadores informais consideravam não ter conhecimento sobre prevenção de quedas em idosos e 85,4% relataram não ter recebido orientações dos profissionais da saúde sobre a prevenção de quedas.…”

“…A queda causa diminuição da capacidade dos idosos, tanto para a independência funcional como para as atividades instrumentais da vida diária, tornando-os mais dependentes para o desempenho das mesmas (1)(2) . As consequências das quedas nos idosos vão desde simples escoriações e medo de uma nova queda, até lesões graves, como as fraturas no fêmur proximal (FFP) com necessidade de um tratamento cirúrgico (3)(4)(5) .…”

RESUMOObjetivo: Compreender a vivência dos cuidadores informais na assistência ao idoso vítima de queda e fratura proximal do fêmur e cirurgia. Método: Estudo qualitativo, realizado em hospital de ensino, tendo como referencial metodológico a análise de conteúdo de Bardin e como referencial teórico a Teoria Geral da Enfermagem de Orem. Resultados: Dos 14 cuidadores informais, a maioria era do sexo feminino e filhas dos pacientes. A partir das falas dos participantes, emergiram as categorias temáticas: O dia da queda, um evento traumático; Agonia e tensão pela espera do leito e cirurgia; Medo, frustração e falta de preparo do cuidador informal; Modificações na vida, privações e sobrecarga do cuidador; cuidado resiliente. Conclusão:Os cuidadores informais devem ser capacitados desde a prevenção do evento até a transição do cuidado hospitalar para a reabilitação no domicílio, resgatando o papel do enfermeiro dentro da equipe multidisciplinar, sendo apoiado pela Teoria Geral da Enfermagem.

“…Awareness of falling as a health hazard does not only depend on an event or information. In order to promote prevention actions, it is necessary to consider the complexity of the multiple factors involved, and especially not to devalue the functional independence capacity of the elderly (21) . Financial investments are necessary so that preventive measures are actually taken in the context of the fall, in order to preserve the functional capacity of the elderly in order to allow them to live longer and better.…”

It was evidenced the thematic axis: Faller Elderly supported by four thematic categories: Changes caused by Falls, I am a faller, I take care of me and Prevention of the Fall. The repercussions of the fall were evidenced in the impairment of the health condition, self-care and functional capacity. We observed the naturalization of the phenomenon and the passivity with the harmful consequences of the event. Final Considerations: The fall is valued the more negative its repercussion, such as the need for hospitalization and surgery. Managing the vulnerability of the elderly, especially in primary care, evaluating their comorbidities and their internal and external environment, will minimize unfavorable consequences and the social and financial cost of hospitalizations.

“…Thus, little is known about the perceptions of elderly individuals regarding risks. Studies [13][14][15][16] show that these individuals are able to perceive risk factors. Despite available evidence, however, authors conclude that further studies addressing RP are needed to confirm results among other groups of elderly individuals and acquire new information regarding associated factors.…”

Objective: To analyze the association of the perception of the elderly on the risk factors for falls. Methods: An Analytical cross-sectional study with 190 elderly from the Healthy Longevity Program of a public university in Mato Grosso, from May to August 2016. The collection wasdone through a structured interview and vignettes. Performed descriptive and bivariate analyzes - Pearson chi-square test (x2) significance level of 5%. The crude and adjusted prevalence ratios (PR), with confidence intervals (95%), were also estimated, followed by Poisson multiple regression. Results: Of the participants, 64.2% had a satisfactory perception about the risk factors for falls. The prevalence of unsatisfactory risk perception was 105% higher in those with income from 1 to 3 minimum wages, 75% higher in those with low risk of falls and 46% higher in those who did not attend another social group. Conclusion and implications for the practice: A significant proportion of the elderly have an unsatisfactory risk perception for the risk factors for falls associated with low income, not attending another social group and the low risk of falls. Knowledge about the risk perception of falls in the elderly helps nurses to plan and implement fall prevention programs for this population.
