Correlação da espirometria com o teste de caminhada de seis minutos em eutróficos e obesos

Abstract: The present study showed a positive correlation between pre- and post-BDA PEFR and the distance covered in the 6MWT in obese subjects, that is, the higher the PEFR, the higher the physico-functional capacity of the individual, and consequently, the greater the distance covered.

“…When the eutrophic and obese groups were compared, there were no significant changes in the maximum distance walked due to the obesity factor. The results contradict studies performed with obese and eutrophic subjects, which showed that the latter walked a greater distance, and that the difference among women was bigger (25). These authors confirmed a negative and discrete relationship between obesity (and its severity levels) and the distance walked in the 6MWT.…”

“…De acordo com a literatura 6,16 , parece evidente que, conforme o sujeito aumenta seus valores de IMC, maior o comprometimento da sua capacidade funcional, gerando assim um aumento na carga de trabalho na realização de suas tarefas 17 . Além disso, não somente a capacidade funcional é comprometida por conta do peso excessivo, como também a capacidade cardiorrespiratória 18 e o desempenho físico 19 , pois a demanda metabólica é aumentada pelo trabalho muscular adicional necessário para compensar o excesso da massa corporal [20][21] .…”

“…Na espirometria foram avaliadas as seguintes variáveis: a capacidade vital forçada (CVF); volume expiratório forçado no primeiro segundo (VEF 1 ); fluxo expiratório forçado entre 25% e 75% da CVF (FEF 25%-75% ); relação VEF 1 /CVF e pico de fluxo expiratório (PFE) mensurando a função pulmonar dos pacientes com o espirômetro da marca Geratherm® (CONTIJO et al, 2011). Os asmáticos foram posicionados sentados, com os pés apoiados no chão.…”
