“…Estudos prévios sobre esta temática (Alfieri, 2008;Araneda, & Solarza, 2013;Rogers, Fernandez, & Bohlken, 2001); Barnett, et al, 2003;Hu, & Woollacott, 1994), além da estimulação cutânea plantar realizam diversos outros tipos de exercícios, que por sua vez também podem ter contribuído para a melhoria na propriocepção cutânea plantar, refletindo numa melhor sensibilidade cutânea. Outros fatores a serem considerado envolvem o tempo de intervenção e o uso de diferentes técnicas de avaliação (Alfieri, Moraes, & Cecilia, 2008;Ueda, & Carpes, 2013;Barnett, et al, 2003). -Cook, & Woollacott, 2003).…”

Influência de estímulos cutâneos plantares sobre a sensibilidade e controle postural em idosos

et al. 2018

A diminuição da sensibilidade cutânea plantar pode resultar na redução do controle postural em idosos, tornando-os mais suscetíveis a quedas. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a influência de um programa de estimulação cutânea plantar, sobre o limiar de sensibilidade e controle postural em indivíduos idosos. Este foi um estudo clínico prospectivo, randomizado e simples-cego, no qual participaram 36 indivíduos idosos acima de 60 anos de idade de ambos os sexos, submetidos ao teste Timed Up and Go (TUG), para mensurar a mobilidade funcional, teste de apoio unipodal para avaliar o equilíbrio estático, e avaliação da sensibilidade plantar por estesiometria com monofilamentos de nylon. Os idosos foram divididos em dois grupos. O grupo-controle não passou por nenhuma intervenção e foi orientado a não mudar o estilo de vida. Já o grupo-experimental foi orientado a realizar intervenções domiciliares por 3 semanas. Após esse período, todos os participantes foram reavaliados. Os resultados revelaram que ambos os grupos apresentaram maior sensibilidade cutânea plantar após 3 semanas; porém, não foram observadas alterações no controle postural. Ambos os grupos demonstraram melhora em relação à sensibilidade cutânea plantar, e não houve diferença entre eles.Palavras-chave: Idoso; Equilíbrio Postural; Envelhecimento.

“…Older adults commonly demonstrate less plantar sensitivity compared with young adults. Interferences in posturography results can be minimized by ensuring that participants have good plantar sensitivity ( Ueda and Carpes, 2013 ). To confirm this, cutaneous sensibility in the plantar region of the feet was evaluated using nylon monofilaments Semmes-Weinstein (SorriBauru ® , Bauru, Brazil) of different diameters and equal length.…”

Isokinetic Muscle Strength and Postural Sway of Recreationally Active Older Adults vs. Master Road Runners

et al. 2021

Trunk muscle strength and control is an important prerequisite for everyday activities among elderly people decreasing the predisposition to falls. High levels of physical exercise performed by older athletes could offer benefits to core/trunk muscle strength and postural control compared with recreational physical activities and among elderly people with lower levels of physical activity. The present study aimed to compare trunk muscle strength and postural control of older running athletes vs. older physically active adults. Participants were master road runners (RUN, n = 15, six women, 64.3 ± 3.6 years) and physically active elderly (control group, CON, n = 15, six women, 65.4 ± 5.0 years) people that were submitted to the evaluations: esthesiometer, posturography (force plate), and isokinetic test (Biodex dynamometer) of trunk muscle extension and flexion. RUN presented higher values for relative peak torque of trunk extensor muscles at 60°/s (p = 0.046) and 180°/s (p = 0.007) and relative average power during trunk extension at 60°/s (p = 0.008) and 180°/s (p = 0.004) compared to CON. CON had a higher medial-lateral oscillation speed of the center of pressure in the stable condition with eyes closed (p = 0.004) compared to RUN. RUN presented higher isokinetic torque of extensor trunk muscles and better postural control than CON. This supposedly could help with postural control and balance and contribute to the prevention of falls among the elderly. The practice of running systematically by master athletes may partially explained our findings.

Effects of application of texture insoles on the balance of subjects with Multiple Sclerosis

et al. 2017

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects on static and dynamic balance after the use of textured insoles. Method: Fifteen subjects with multiple sclerosis were evaluated before using the insoles, after using them for 1 month, and after 2 months without using, them using the following measuring instruments: the Berg Balance Scale, Dynamic Gait Index, and 10-meter Walk Test, a means of functional gait assessment. Results: Improvement was observed in the Berg Balance Scale and Dynamic Gait Index scores, walking time, number of steps and step length after using the insoles for 1 month. The improvement in Berg Balance Scale score remained after two months without the insoles and there were no changes in gait speed. Conclusion: The use of textured insoles was effective as an intervention to improve static and dynamic balance in patients with multiple sclerosis.
