“…The sedentary lifestyle during old age is a factor which further contributes to the deterioration of postural control (34,35), and this significantly increases the risk of falls, therefore, physical exercise contribute to minimize changes of the aging process and it is important for keeping functional capacity and a good health status, besides protecting the elderly individual with regard to the occurrence of falls. This study found out that almost the entire sample (96.40%) uses medicines for chronic diseases.…”

Objective: Identify the causes and consequences of falls among elderly people at home, according to gender and age group, and determine which body structures are most affected. Materials and methods: The sample consisted of 389 elderly people living in the town of Chapecó, Santa Catarina, Brazil, with 191 women (49.10%) and 198 men (50.89%). For data collection, we used a questionnaire and an examination of the mental status. Results: We identified an average of 1.6 falls per year; there was an average of 1.57 for men and 1.63 for women. However, according to the age group, people over 80 years were those who suffered more falls, with an average of 2.16 per year. The place with the highest incidence of falls was the bathroom (24.94%), followed by the kitchen (18.25%). Most people reported they have suffered some kind of injury (92.03%); excoriations (46.52%) were the most common, followed by fractures (29.05%), and the sites with more episodes were the ankle (19.79%) and knee (18.25%). Conclusion:We found out that the occurrence of falls at home constitutes a public health problem, either due to the number of injuries and the impact they generate on the elderly health or the need for thinking of strategies to prevent these episodes at home.[P]Keywords: Elderly person.

Objetivos: Identificar as causas e consequências de quedas de idosos em domicílio por gênero e faixa etária e verificar quais estruturas corporais são mais acometidas. Materiais e métodos: A amostra constituiu-se de 389 idosos residentes no município de Chapecó, sendo 191 mulheres (49,10%) e 198 homens (50,89%). Para a coleta dos dados utilizou-se um questionário adaptado de Lojudice (13) e o Miniexame do Estado Mental (12). Resultados: Foi identificada uma média de 1,6 quedas ao ano (DP ± 0,97). Uma média de 1,57 (DP ± 1,02) para homens e 1,63 (DP ± 0,91) nas mulheres. No entanto, por faixa etária, são os idosos com mais de 80 anos aqueles que mais sofreram quedas, em uma média de 2,16 (DP ± 1,34) por ano. O local de mais ocorrências de quedas foi o banheiro (24,94%), seguido da cozinha (18,25%). A maioria relatou ter sofrido algum tipo de lesão (92,03%), sendo as mai...

“…The results of our study conflict with those of Ghandali et al (45), as no significant differences were found in the COP area. Considering that Tai Chi exercises include relaxation, deep breathing, slow movements, and destabilization of the center of mass, promoting greater body awareness and flexibility (46), we believe that the type of exercise employed in the study explains this difference in results. Costa et al investigated the effect of using the undenatured collagen combined with a physiotherapy program on symptomatology, joint mobility, muscle strength, and knee joint function in patients with knee OA.…”

Background. Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic, multifactorial and progressive disease that decreases range of motion and flexibility and alters proprioception and postural control. Postural control provides stability and conditions to assume and maintain the desired body position. In OA patients, this postural control is diminished along with overall functional capacity, and physical exercise aims to reduce these alterations. Objective. To evaluate and compare the postural control of patients with knee OA before and after a supervised clinic based or home exercises protocol. Methods. 48 OA patients between 40 and 65 years participated in the study. They were assessed using the 40-meter walk test and postural control (force platform). Postural control was evaluated with eyes open, and eyes closed, with and without the use of an unstable surface, in three attempts of 30 seconds each, with a 1-minute rest interval between them. After assessments, participants were randomized into two groups: supervised clinic-based exercise group (CBG) (n = 23) and home based exercise group (HBG) (n = 25). The exercise protocol was the same for both groups, and they were reevaluated after 8 weeks of training. Results. Both groups improved their walking speed after treatment. Regarding postural control, there were no differences in the variables of center of pressure displacement before and after intervention with exercises, regardless of the group. Conclusions. Patients showed no improvement in postural control after the intervention, although there was an increase in walking speed in both groups. Study registration. The study has been registered in Clinical Trials (number NCT0335643).

“…As experiências com o exercício físico podem ajudar na conservação de um equilíbrio adequado, reduzindo a probabilidade de quedas à medida que o indivíduo envelhece 7 . Essa inferência corrobora diversos estudos sobre os efeitos de diferentes tipos de treinamento de equilíbrio para melhorar essa função nos idosos [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] .…”

Introdução: O processo de envelhecimento leva a um declínio da capacidade funcional, comprometendo a saúde da pessoa idosa. Exercícios físicos ajudam na conservação de um equilíbrio adequado, reduzindo a probabilidade de quedas. Objetivo: Verificar os efeitos de um programa de hidroginástica no equilíbrio de idosos. Métodos: Participaram do estudo oito idosos, com idades entre 60 e 74 anos, iniciantes no programa de hidroginástica. O equilíbrio foi avaliado por meio da Escala de Equilíbrio de Berg. Realizou-se uma análise descritiva dos dados e empregou-se o teste “t” de Student para amostras pareadas, adotando-se o nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Observou-se um aumento discreto nas médias do desempenho motor do equilíbrio dos idosos após o programa de hidroginástica; contudo, a diferença entre as médias de pré e pós-teste não foi estatisticamente significativa (p=0, 231). Conclusão: Pontua-se a necessidade de priorizar exercícios que potencializem o equilíbrio nos programas de hidroginástica.
