&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FUNCIONALIDADE EM IDOSOS: REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA DA LITERATURA&lt;br /&gt; FUNCTIONALITY IN OLDER ADULTS: INTEGRATIVE REVIEW OF LITERATURE

RESUMO Objetivo Analisar a aplicabilidade da Screening of Activity Limitation and Safety Awareness (SALSA) para a avaliação da capacidade funcional de idosos com hanseníase. Método Pesquisa descritiva, transversal, desenvolvida com 77 idosos com hanseníase acompanhados no Centro de Referência em Dermatologia, em Fortaleza, Ceará, de junho a agosto de 2015, por meio da aplicação da SALSA e de outras duas escalas já validadas para uso em idosos. Para a análise, utilizou-se estatística descritiva e inferencial. Resultados Houve convergência entre as escalas (p=0,0000) na avaliação da capacidade funcional. As variáveis idade e sexo apresentaram maior número de associações com as atividades avaliadas, ao passo que, nas variáveis clínicas relacionadas à hanseníase, apenas o grau de incapacidade física apresentou relação com mais de duas atividades. Conclusão A SALSA contribuiu para a avaliação eficaz da capacidade funcional na população estudada, sendo mais influenciada pela idade do que pela hanseníase. Implicações para a prática: Assim, recomenda-se a sua aplicação nas consultas iniciais como instrumento de rastreio da capacidade funcional de idosos com hanseníase.

To identify the gains in elderly functional independence through the implementation of the rehabilitation nursing program, a pilot study involving the quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional case study methodology was applied to an accidental sample of elderly people, with only two persons having completed the previously defined intervention program. The Rikli and Jones functional fitness test for older adults exercises, such as a rehabilitation nursing exercise program and the Barthel scale, were used to measure the functional independence of the elderly in the performance of activities of daily living. From the implementation of the rehabilitation nursing program to the elderly who concluded it in its entirety, the results show global gains in the functional aptitude program and an improvement in functional independence with gains in most activities of daily living. An improvement in the functional independence of elderly people who participated in the rehabilitation nursing program involving the functional fitness exercises of Rikli and Jones was verified.
