“…Mesurado y Laudadío (2019) revelan que los docentes más experimentados presentan mayores niveles de capital psicológico (específicamente eficacia, resiliencia y esperanza) y mayor nivel de absorción, una dimensión de engagement, que los menos experimentados. Se debe destacarse la actividad física como una posible alternativa para reducir la carga de la pandemia de COVID-19 sobre la función cognitiva y la salud mental (Feter et al, 2021).…”

La actividad física realizada de manera sistemática es la piedra angular frente a las enfermedades. Los docentes universitarios por las múltiples responsabilidades, y viviendo en confinamiento son propensos a desarrollar el estrés y el sobrepeso. El objetivo de la investigación es determinar la relación de la actividad física, el estrés con el Índice de Masa Corporal en docentes universitarios en pandemia. El tipo de investigación es básica, con diseño descriptivo correlacional múltiple con una población de 1150 docentes y con una muestra de tipo probabilística de 234 docentes (150 varones y 84 mujeres) con promedio de edad 49.70 ± 10.01, los instrumentos utilizados son los cuestionarios de actividad física, estrés y el reporte de sus medidas antropométricas (estatura y peso). Resultados el 58.86% de varones presentan actividad física baja, en comparación con las mujeres 41.14%, el 91.95% muestran estrés por presión laboral, los varones presentan mayor tendencia al sobrepeso 67.59%, en comparación con las mujeres 32.41% y obesidad grado II 33.96%. Se determina la relación entre las variables actividad física, estrés y el Índice de Masa Corporal con un Rho de Spearman inversamente proporcional de -0,183 y -0,204. En conclusión, los docentes varones muestran porcentajes más altos de inactividad física y sobrepeso.

“…Moreover, prehabilitation has a role in the prevention and management of co-morbidities, including but not limited to, cardiopulmonary conditions, obesity, and diabetes, as these risk factors associate with higher morbidity and mortality in patients who develop COVID-19 [93,94]. Pandemic containment measures, such as lockdowns, infrastructure/facility restrictions, and social distancing also necessitate buffers against their negative impact on quality of life [37,38,39]. Thus, prehabilitation may have a role for the general population beyond surgery and include the prevention of severe COVID-19 outcomes [95].…”

“…Exercise is also known to reduce risk factors that increase vulnerability to severe COVID-19-related morbidity, through its role in preventing and managing chronic disease [34,35,36]. Beyond the benefits of physical activity and exercise directly related to COVID-19 infection, the importance of these health behaviors on mental health and quality of life amidst pandemic containment measures, such as lockdowns and social distancing, is emerging rapidly [37,38,39]. Collectively, these established and novel areas of research have prompted urgent calls to action to promote and support safe physical activity and exercise during the pandemic, which may be especially relevant to those who are also awaiting surgery.…”

Purpose of Review Multimodal prehabilitation aims to improve preoperative health in ways that reduce surgical complications and expedite post-operative recovery. However, the extent to which preoperative health has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic is unclear and evidence for the mitigating effects of prehabilitation in this context has not been elucidated. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a rapid reorganization of perioperative pathways. Delayed diagnosis and surgery have caused a backlog of cases awaiting surgery increasing the risk of more complex procedures due to disease progression. Poor fitness and preoperative deconditioning are predictive of surgical complications and may be compounded by pandemic-related restrictions to accessing supportive services. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a rapid reorganization of perioperative pathways. This narrative review aims to summarize the understanding of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on preoperative health and related behaviors and their implication for the need and delivery for prehabilitation to engender improved surgical outcomes. A literature search of Medline was conducted for articles related to preoperative health, prehabilitation, and surgical outcomes published between December 1, 2020 and January 31, 2021. Additional hand searches for relevant publications within the included literature were also conducted through October 15, 2021. Recent FindingsThe COVID-19 pandemic, and measures designed to reduce the spread of the virus, have resulted in physical deconditioning, deleterious dietary changes, substance misuse, and heightened anxiety prior to surgery. Due to the adverse health changes prior to surgery, and often protracted waiting time for surgery, there is likely an elevated risk of peri-and post-operative complications. A small number of prehabilitation services and research programmes have been rapidly adapted or implemented to address these needs. Summary During the COVID-19 pandemic to date, people undergoing surgery have faced a triple threat posed by extended wait times for surgery, reduced access to supportive services, and an elevated risk of poor outcomes. It is imperative that healthcare providers find ways to employ evidence-based prehabilitation strategies that are accessible and safe to mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic on surgical outcomes. Attention should be paid to cohorts most affected by established health inequities and further exacerbated by the pandemic.

“…4,5 Physical activity is one of the key behavioural factors that has a positive impact on health outcomes, including reduced risk of chronic illness, increased cognitive function, and improved mental health. 6,7 In addition, restrictions on going out have weakened social connections, which are deeply linked to the nervous system, endocrine system, and immune system. The feeling of loneliness caused by social isolation causes mood and cognitive decline, alters the regulation of inflammatory responses in the body, damages the immune system, and impairs concentration and sleep habits.…”

Increased anxiety about falls and walking ability among community‐dwelling Japanese older adults during the COVID‐19 pandemic

Background: Understanding the physical and mental changes in communitydwelling elderly people is very important during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic when considering preventive measures. The purpose of this study was to clarify the changes of physical function and anxiety for activities of daily living in community-dwelling older adults, focusing on locomotor function during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The study participants were 127 older people who participated in successive surveys, in the summers of 2019 and again in 2020, after the state of emergency. The Locomo 25 questionnaire, Geriatric Depression Scale-15 (GDS-15) questionnaire, medical history, and number of people living together were self-reported. The Locomo 25 covers six aspects of physical pain, movement-related difficulty, usual care, daily activity, social activities, and anxiety. Results: The paired samples t-test revealed that Locomo 25 total scores in 2020 were significantly higher than those in 2019. The GDS-15 score showed no significant difference. The comparison of scores for each item of the Locomo 25 revealed significantly higher scores in 2020 on Q21 ('difficult to perform sports activity', P = 0.0021), Q22 ('restricted from meeting own friends', P < 0.001), Q23 ('restricted from joining social activities', P < 0.001), Q24 ('anxious about falling in own house', P = 0.0023), and Q25 ('anxious about being unable to walk in the future', P = 0.0016). Conclusions: About 2 months after declaration of the first state of emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan, social activity was severely restricted. Older adults showed almost no changes in body pain and locomotive disabilities, but increases in their anxieties about walking ability and falling were remarkable.
