“…They also tend to engage in inadequate social behavior and experience progressive difficulty in dealing with emotional issues. 35 These observations were confirmed in a study conducted by Beckert et al, 24 whose results showed that better emotional control leads to a better cognitive performance in certain tasks.…”

“…32 Cognitive function is a determinant for the maintenance of an independent lifestyle and its loss is considered an indicator of decline and physical/functional weakness, which affect the individual's ability to perform activities of daily living. 24 Therefore, the results found for the dimension functional capacity could be explained by the degree of cognitive skills that the individual´s daily work and domestic activities demand, for which they require reason, spatial and temporal awareness, a healthy memory and communication skills. Activities of daily living are limited when these skills begin to decline.…”

“…The results of this study confirmed significant correlations between cognitive variables and the physical and psychological dimensions of quality of life. 24 Therefore, considering the consequences that arterial hypertension and cognitive alterations can have on an individual's life, and given the growing need for investigations into the epidemiological aspects of this disorder in order to avoid sequelae that have a strong impact on activities of daily living, the aim of the present study was to analyze the correlation between cognitive decline and quality of life in hypertensive elderly individuals who are registered in the Ministry of Health´s HIPERDIA program.…”

Objective: To evaluate the association between cognitive decline and quality of life in hypertensive elderly persons. Methods: A quantitative, cross-sectional, analytical study involving 125 hypertensive elderly individuals of both genders attending the HIPERDIA Program in São Luís, in the state of Maranhao, was performed. The Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE) was used to evaluate cognitive decline and quality of life was assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study 36 Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36). The normality of the data was verified by the Shapiro-Wilk test. The Mann-Whitney test was also applied (quality of life). The association between cognitive decline and quality of life was evaluated using Spearman's coefficient. Results: The prevalence of cognitive decline was 20.8% and there was a predominance of elderly persons with a low educational level (45.83%). Hypertensive elderly individuals with cognitive decline had a poorer quality of life than those without cognitive decline. A positive association between cognitive function and quality of life was observed for the following domains: functional capacity (r=0.222; p=0.01), pain (r=0.1871; p=0.04), and emotional aspects (r=0.3136; p=0.0005). Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that cognitive decline directly affects the quality of life of the elderly by limiting the capacity to perform activities of daily living, especially if associated with painful medical conditions and emotional disturbances.

“…Some researchers found a positive relationship between cognitive function and quality of life (Beckert, Irigaray, & Trentini, 2012) and others argue that the more severe the cognitive impairment, the lower the quality of life (Leite et al, 2012a;Leite, Winck, Hildebrandt, Kirchner, & Silva, 2012b). Similarly, the findings of Winocur et al (2007) support the hypothesis that quality of life contributes to successful aging, more specifically, it contributes to preserve cognitive function.…”

“…Com base em estudos epidemiológicos a prevalência de alterações cognitivas, como a demência, varia de 1,6%, entre pessoas com idade de 65 a 69 anos, e 38,9% para pessoas com idade superiores há 84 anos, dados esses referentes à população brasileira 2 . Os declínios cognitivos podem acarretar modificações físicas, sociais e emocionais, bem como prejuízos da memória, podendo este ocasionar desde pequenos esquecimentos até severos comprometimentos 3 . Assim, alterações cognitivas podem comprometer a qualidade de vida dos idosos em vários aspectos funcionais e predispõe ao surgimento de diversas patologias, como a doença de Alzheimer que reflete diretamente na memória 4 .…”

RESUMOO processo de envelhecimento favorece declínios cognitivos e prejuízos na memória, que podem ocasionar desde pequenos esquecimentos até severos comprometimentos. Este foi um estudo realizado com idosos participantes do grupo de Oficina da Memória em uma ESF. Participaram 5 idosos, com média de idade 70,2 ± 9,4 anos. Foi realizada a aplicação do teste do Mini Exame do Estado Mental (MEEM) em dois momentos que demonstrou que a média do resultado pós-intervenção foi maior quando comparado com a primeira avaliação. Embora a diferença estatística não seja significativa, provavelmente por uma amostra pequena, o escore apresentado pelos indivíduos variou de 24 a 30 pontos pós-intervenção. Para o público idoso, uma melhora na pontuação desta escala significa avanços na função cognitiva mostrando que o grupo de Oficina da Memória pode trazer benefícios nesta área.

MEMORY WORKSHOP WITH ELDERLY FAMILY HEALTH STRATEGY ABSTRACTWith aging may occur cognitive declines and losses in memory which can result from either or severe impairments. This is a cross-sectional study with elderly participants of the workshop memory group in a Health Family Strategy. Five participants were evaluated, mean age of 70.2 ± 9.4 years old. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used in two moments. The mean post-intervention outcome was higher compared to the first assessment. Although, there was no significant difference, probably for a small sample, the score by individuals ranged from 24 to 30 post-intervention points. For elderly, any improvement in this scale means advances and showing that a Memory Workshop could bring benefits in this area.
