Relação entre força de preensão manual e força de membro inferior em mulheres de meia idade: um estudo transversal

Abstract: ResumoEmbora a força de preensão manual (FPM) seja utilizada para avaliação de força total do corpo, ainda há contradição na literatura acerca da capacidade preditiva da força de membro inferior (FMI) a partir da FPM. Sabe-se que a FMI é determinante na estabilidade corporal e na locomoção, sendo de extrema importância sua avaliação de forma precisa. Portanto, o objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a correlação entre a FPM e FMI (flexores e extensores de joelho) em mulheres de meia idade. Trata-se de um estudo ob… Show more

“…Among these, there are not only physiological and metabolic transformations, but also structural and functional ones. The declines resulting from the aging process as well as the dysfunctions and diseases prevalent in this age group can compromise the functionality, independence and quality of life of the old people [1][2][3][4] .…”

“…Old people have decreased muscle strength due to muscular, neurological, endocrine or environmental mechanisms 2,5 . The decline in strength and mobility of the old person interferes with the performance of essential activities for functional performance, such as walking, sitting, standing up, climbing stairs, among others 1,4 .…”

“…The declines resulting from the aging process, as well as the dysfunctions and diseases prevalent in this age group, may compromise the functionality, independence and quality of life of the elderly. [1][2][3][4] The loss of muscle mass and consequently muscle strength and power is the main responsible for the deterioration in mobility and functionality of the aging individual. [2][3][4] The elderly present a decrease in muscle strength from muscular, neurological, endocrine or environmental mechanisms.…”

“…, such as walking, sitting, standing, climbing stairs, among others. 1,4 As a general indicator of muscle strength and power, in clinical practice, handgrip strength (HGS) has been used. 6 In addition, the evaluation of HGS is used as an indicator of global strength 8,9 and functionality 7,8 , however, not all studies have been able to demonstrate the existence of significant correlations between HGS and functional performance.…”

“…A força de preensão manual, além de predizer a força de membros superiores, também tem sido utilizada como indicadora de força global 10 . Essas medidas têm sido investigadas, pois demostram ser um importante preditor de diversos fatores relacionados à saúde na população idosa, incluindo estado nutricional e fragilidade 11 .…”
