Avaliação da capacidade funcional de mulheres com fibromialgia: métodos diretos e autorrelatados. DOI: 10.5007/1980-0037.2011v13n4p292

Abstract: Avaliação da capacidade funcional de mulheres com fibromialgia: métodos diretos e autorrelatados Assessment of functional capacity in women with fibromyalgia: direct and self-reported methodsResumo -A Fibromialgia (FM) pode limitar a execução das atividades da vida diária (AVD's) e causar impacto negativo na qualidade de vida (QV) destes pacientes. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar associações entre métodos diretos e indiretos para avaliar a capacidade funcional e a relação destes com algumas característic… Show more

“…In evaluating 40 females (20 with FM and 20 without FM) in a Medical Clinic Ambulatory, authors have observed statistically significant differences in marital status between groups, being most FM patients married and control patients had partners, but were not married 10 . Mean age was similar for both groups (Table 2), confirming results of other studies with similar samples 11,12 . On the other hand, researchers have evaluated a sample similar to ours and have found significantly older mean age in FM patients as compared to control group, being this difference statistically significant (p = 0.03) 10 .…”

“…In a different study with 38 females diagnosed with FM, results have shown moderate difficulty to severe incapacity when their functional capacity was evaluated. That is, there has been significant correlation between pain and the level of functional incapacity for daily activities 12 . In this context, there is a cyclic relationship between different FM conditioning factors and functional incapacity.…”

“…When pain was associated with the distance walked in the test, this variation increased to 60% 29 . In a similar way, in the present study, significant correlation between the distance walked in the 6MWT and HAQ was verified (r=-0.49; p=0.03).…”

“…A recently published study 29 evidenced the relationship between the 6MWT and HAQ and showed that this questionnaire was valid in evaluating the limitations in performance of daily activities, because pain explained a variation of 40% in its score. When pain was associated with the distance walked in the test, this variation increased to 60% 29 .…”

“…A diminuição da capacidade funcional que foi relatada na presente pesquisa é evidenciada em outro estudo que mostra que a dor compromete a força e o desempenho para as atividades dos pacientes com fibromialgia, o que afeta diretamente a sua qualidade de vida. Além disso, os indivíduos que apresentam maiores dificuldades na realização das tarefas da vida diária percorrem menores distâncias quando avaliada sua capacidade funcional (9) . A dor na fibromialgia é diferente de qualquer outra impressão sensorial.…”
