Frequência De Posturas Escolióticas Em Crianças E Adolescentes: Rastreio Escolar

Abstract: Objetivo: Estimar a frequência de posturas escolióticas em crianças e adolescentes, e identificar possíveis fatores associados. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal com crianças e adolescentes de 9 a 14 anos matriculados em uma Escola Municipal do Distrito Sanitário Cabula-Beirú na cidade de Salvador, Ba. Os estudantes foram submetidos a uma avaliação postural, teste de Adams e aplicação de questionário semi-estruturado, nos meses de agosto e setembro de 2015. As análises foram conduzidas no programa Epi… Show more

“…Although there is no significant association between laterality and scoliosis, data supported by previous studies [ 1 , 2 ], we consider that an early diagnosis of postural changes prevents its progression and its future appearance. Scoliosis, due to unilateral mechanical forces, may destabilise the muscle-articular joint and favour the appearance of muscular and coordinative differences and the lack of a normal movement in one area, what will result in excessive movement in another causing mechanical overload in these structures, which are sensitive to pain.…”

“… Abstract
Introduction In middle and highschool, where classroom furniture and equipment are developed mainly for right-handed children, left-handed children may find specific obstacles that can lead to postural changes in the future [ 1 ]. The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is an association between handedness and the incidence of spinal changes in the frontal anatomical plane, in a sample of students aged between 10 and 18 years old from public middle schools in Amares, Braga, Portugal.

“…Borges et al 15 observed incidence of 76.92% of head misalignment and 46.15% of scoliosis. Pereira and Figueirôa 16 found that the frequency of scoliotic posture in schoolchildren aged 9-14 years who attended the basic cycle of a municipal school in Salvador, Bahia, was 35.2%. Vieira et al 17 found prevalence of early signs of scoliosis in 26.3% of the 377 schoolchildren aged 5-6 years of both sexes.…”
