“…Mobility is an extremely important component of physical function as well as a prerequisite in ADL performance and maintaining independence 28 . Supporting the results found in the present research, Rantanen et al 29 argued that, as functional mobility decreases, activities require more muscular work, increasing energy expenditure; thus, older adults use more energy to walk, contributing to the decline in motor and cardiovascular function.…”

© Revista Brasileira de FisioterapiaCorrelation between the walk, 2-minute step and tug tests among hypertensive older womenCorrelação entre os testes da caminhada, marcha estacionária e tug em hipertensas idosas Pedrosa R, Holanda g AbstractBackground:The increase in chronic diseases among older adults, especially systemic arterial hypertension, a disease that is closely related to declining functional capacity, has created the need to study methods for activity evaluation in order to detect functional capacity levels, prescribe exercises and monitor motor and cardiovascular function. The Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), Two-MinuteStep Test (2MST) and Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) are indicated for such evaluations. Studies among healthy older adults have shown associations between these tests, thus aiding the evaluation of functional capacity. However, there are no studies on the relationships between the 6MWT, 2MST and TUG among hypertensive individuals, thus justifying the present research. Objectives: To investigate whether there is any association between aerobic endurance and functional mobility among hypertensive older women.Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational and analytical study on 32 hypertensive older women who were evaluated using the 6MWT, 2MST and TUG. Results: There was a moderate positive correlation between the 6MWT and 2MST (r=0.36; p=0.04), and there were moderate negative correlations between the 6MWT and TUG (r=-0.59; p=0.000) and between the 2MST and TUG (r=-0.66; p=0.000). Conclusions: For hypertensive older women, the 6MWT can be replaced by the 2MST; the same applied to healthy older adults. Regarding the correlation between the 6MWT, 2MST and TUG, it can be concluded that there is a close relationship between cardiovascular endurance and functional mobility. When there is lower cardiovascular endurance, there is precarious functional mobility and vice versa.Key words: hypertension; aging; physical fitness. ResumoContextualização: O aumento de doenças crônicas em idosos, principalmente da Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica, doença intimamente relacionada ao declínio da capacidade funcional, determina a necessidade do estudo de métodos de avaliação da realização das atividades, possibilitando detecção de níveis de capacidade funcional, prescrição de exercícios e acompanhamento das funções cardiovascular e motora. O teste da caminhada de 6 minutos (TC6'), o teste da Marcha Estacionária de 2 minutos (TME2') e o teste Timed Up and Go (TUG) são indicados para esta avaliação. Estudos em idosos saudáveis mostram a associação entre esses testes, facilitando a avaliação da capacidade funcional. Porém, em hipertensos, não existem estudos que avaliem a relação entre TC6', TME2'e TUG, justificando a realização desta pesquisa. Objetivos: Verificar se existe associação entre endurance aeróbia e a mobilidade funcional em idosas hipertensas. Métodos: Estudo observacional, analítico e transversal, com 32 hipertensas idosas, avaliadas por meio do TC6', TME2' e TUG. Resultados: Houve correlação positiv...

“…There are few studies on the association between cognition and functional performance in the elderly in Brazil [10][11][12] ; the studies generally have cross-sectional designs as a rule. Longitudinal studies are required to produce evidence on the changes in the cognitive and functional performance of the elderly, conduct tests to assess how these changes occur over time to guide interventions and preventive actions, and, eventually, to contribute to the planning of public policies.…”

| Background: The relationship between aging and increased life expectancy in the overall population likely contributes to a higher frequency rate and incidence of illnesses and functional disabilities. Physical dependence and cognitive impairment might hinder the performance of activities and result in an overload of care duties for the patient's family and the healthcare system. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the functional and cognitive changes exhibited by the elderly over a 6-month period. Method: This longitudinal and observational study was conducted in a sample of 167 elderly people, who were selected from the database of the Network of Studies on Frailty in Brazilian Elderly, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais -UFMG. The participants submitted to the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Katz Index, Lawton and Brody's scale and responded to items on Advanced Activities of Daily Living (AADLs). We analyzed the data using multivariate regression models. Results: The participants' functional capacity exhibited reduced performance of specific instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs), p=0.002, and basic activities of daily living (BADLs), p=0.038. Living alone (odds ratio (OR), 2.53; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.09-5.87) and work status (OR, 2.52; 95% CI, 1.18-5.41) were associated with changes in the IADLs. The scores in the AADL scale (p=0.163) and MMSE (p=0.059) did not exhibit any significant difference during the study period. The participants with better cognitive function were more independent in their performance of AADLs and IADLs. Conclusion: The results depict specific patterns of loss and stability of functional capacity in community-dwelling elderly.Keywords: elderly; activities of daily life; cognition; rehabilitation.

introdução: Com a chegada da velhice, ocorrem mudanças que determinam uma progressiva perda da capacidade de adaptação do indivíduo, resultando em dificuldades para manter o equilíbrio ao realizar suas atividades de vida diárias, dificultando a convivência na sociedade. A dança, por sua vez, proporciona a melhora da capacidade funcional e dos benefícios psicológicos. objetivo: Avaliar o benefício da dança sênior em relação ao equilíbrio e às atividades de vida diárias no idoso. métodos: Participaram do grupo de dança sênior 19 idosos entre 60 a 85 anos, que responderam as escalas de equilíbrio de Berg e de atividades de vida diárias de Lawton. A dança sênior foi aplicada duas vezes por semana, durante três meses e, ao final desse período, foram refeitas as duas escalas citadas. resultados: A partir dos achados deste estudo, foi possível identificar que a prática de dança sênior trouxe melhora do equilíbrio e das atividades de vida diárias. Considerando que o equilíbrio e o risco de queda avaliados pela escala de Berg resultaram em avanços, mostrando um valor estatístico significativo de p=0,001 referente à independência nas atividades de vida diárias avaliadas pela escala de Lawton, observou-se o resultado de aperfeiçoamento com p=0,001. Conclusão: A dança sênior demonstrou ser benéfica em relação ao equilíbrio e às atividades de vida diárias no idoso.Palavras-chave: idoso; dança; equilíbrio; atividades cotidianas. AbstrACt introduction:With elderly onset, some changes happen and determine a progressive loss of the individual's adaptability, resulting in difficulties to maintain balance when performing activities of daily living, and making coexistence in society difficult. Dance provides improved functional capacity and psychological benefits. objective: To evaluate the benefit of senior dance regarding balance and activities of daily living in the elderly. methods: The senior dance group included 19 aged individuals between 60 to 85 years old, who answered the Berg and Lawton activities of daily living scales. Senior dance was applied twice a week for three months and, at the end of this period, the two scales were reapplied. results: From the results of this study, it was possible to notice that the senior dance practice provided improvements to balance and activities of daily living. Since balance and fall risks assessed by Berg's scale resulted in advances, showing a highly significant statistical value of p=0.001 regarding independence in activities of daily living assessed by Lawton's scale, it was observed an improvement result with p=0.001. Conclusion: Senior dancing proved being beneficial as to balance and activities of daily living in the elderly.Keywords: aged; dancing; balance; activities of daily living.Autor para correspondência: Aline Felipe Gomes da Silva -Studio 11 Pilates -Rua Salvador Simões, 867 -Alto do Ipiranga -CEP: 04276-000 -São Paulo (SP), Brasil -E-mail: licafgomes@hotmail.com Conflito de interesses: nada a declarar.
