“…The literature confirms this finding across different age groups. A study on the prevalence of physical inactivity and its associated factors among older people showed a positive and statistically significant association between worse health perception and physical inactivity (Ribeiro et al., 2016).…”

Aims To compare factors associated with the sedentary lifestyle described in the literature with the factors listed in NANDA International. Design Systematic review with meta‐analysis of factors associated with a sedentary lifestyle in adolescents, adults and older people. Data sources An electronic search of PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL and Latin America and the Caribbean Literature on Health and Science databases conducted in May 2016. Review methods Descriptive data were extracted according to a standardized form. The odds ratios for each etiological factor associated with a sedentary lifestyle were extracted directly from the articles or calculated from the data described therein. The meta‐analysis was conducted for factors that were investigated in more than one study. Results Thirty‐five articles were included. The statistically significant factors were: lack of social support, of physical space, of time, of motivation, of sports skills and of interest in physical activity, intolerance to activity, being retired, living in a low‐income country, laziness, not having a job/studying, low socioeconomic status and level of knowledge about physical activity, female gender, living in an urban area, negative self‐perception of health, using public transportation, being in the oldest age group in the study and perceived physical disability. Conclusion The new factors associated with a sedentary lifestyle and those already included in the NANDA International classification will lead to better clinical guidance for nurses. Impact Knowledge about these factors can contribute directly to public health policies.

“…Despite this, in a populationbased study with 621 elderly people, there was a prevalence of 70.1% of physical inactivity, which points to the need to encourage exercise in this population. 20 The participants of the sessions were instructed to carry out walks and stretches. It is pointed out that this practice was corroborated in an intervention research, which found that both interventions were effective.…”

Objetivo: relatar a experiência de sessões educacionais sobre saúde cardiovascular no domicílio de idosos com hipertensão arterial e/ou Dibetes Mellitus. Método: trata-se de um estudo descritivo, tipo relato de experiência, que consistiu na realização de sessões educativas sobre saúde cardiovascular no domicílio de 164 idosos hipertensos e/ou diabéticos. Analisaram-se os dados de modo descritivo. Resultados: notou-se que as idosas aderiram mais às atividades do que os idosos. Destacou-se que a maioria dos idosos pensava que a alimentação saudável era dispendiosa, impressionando-se com a explicação sobre os aditivos do cigarro e seus malefícios. Verifica-se que os idosos que não praticavam atividade física justificaram a ausência dessa prática pelo desinteresse e pela falta de entusiasmo. Conclusão: conclui-se que a visita domiciliar é uma estratégia para se desenvolver sessões educativas sobre saúde cardiovascular de idosos hipertensos e/ou diabéticos, principalmente os do sexo masculino e com risco cardiovascular aumentado. Descritores: Idoso; Doenças Cardiovasculares; Educação em Saúde; Promoção da Saúde; Visita Domiciliar; Enfermagem.AbstractObjective: to report the experience of educational sessions on cardiovascular health in the home of elderly people with arterial hypertension and/or Diabetes Mellitus. Method: this is a descriptive study, of the experience report type, which consisted of educational sessions on cardiovascular health at home with 164 hypertensive and/or diabetic elderly people. The data were analyzed descriptively. Results: it was noted that the elderly adhered to the activities more than the elderly. It was highlighted that the majority of the elderly thought that healthy eating was expensive, being impressed with the explanation about cigarette additives and their harmful effects. It appears that the elderly who did not practice physical activity justified the absence of this practice due to lack of interest and lack of enthusiasm. Conclusion: it is concluded that home visit is a strategy to develop educational sessions on cardiovascular health of hypertensive and/or diabetic elderly, especially male and with increased cardiovascular risk.

“…consequently, compromising the way in which the elderly perceive their own health (Huntley et al, 2012; A. P. Ribeiro et al, 2008; J. L. F. Santos et al, 2008).The absence of a relationship between dyslipidemia and functional capacity to perform ADL in our study is corroborated byRodrigues et al (2008) who found that although older adults with dyslipidemia had less functional capacity, such relationship was not significant. Similarly,Ribeiro et al (2016) found a lower prevalence of physical inactivity in older adults with dyslipidemia.…”

Diabetes Mellitus is a disease that contribute to the loss of functional capacity in older adults. This study aimed to measure diabetic older adults' functional capacity for activities of daily living (ADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). We carried out a descriptive and analytical crosssectional study with older adults aged 65+ years at a specialized health care center of Brazil. The medical records of the patients were selected using non-probability sampling. In this study was found, significantly statistical, higher prevalence in ADL among persons aged 75+ years, those with low levels of education and relation between self-rated current health status. For dependence in IADL, it was common among 75+ years old people, those with lower levels of education, with income of up to 2 minimum wages and worse self-rated health. There is a need to work on public policies that contribute to active and successful aging by promoting the autonomy and functional independence of older adults in the household and community.
