“…For the Lawton scale, the elderly subjects and their companion responded to the questionnaire. For the Pfeffer questionnaire, only the elderly subject's companion responded (Dos Santos & Virtuoso Júnior, 2008;Dutra, Ribeiro, Pinheiro, de Melo, & Carvalho, 2015;Lawton & Brody, 1969;Pfeffer, Kurosaki, Harrah, Chance, & Filos, 1982). The GDS-15 is a shortened version of the original 30-item instrument, which has presented good sensitivity and specificity for screening depressive symptoms (Paradela, Lourenço, & Veras, 2005;Yesavage et al, 1982).…”

The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of age and schooling on Brief Cognitive Screening Battery (BCSB) performance in elderly residents in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The sample was composed of 470 elderly individuals, all of whom were evaluated using the BCSB. The results were analyzed by groups that were divided by age and schooling. Analyses of variances (ANOVAs) were performed to examine differences in performance between the age and schooling groups and interactions between age and schooling. Correlations between cognitive variables, age, and schooling were also analyzed. The sample consisted of 420 women (89.4%) and 50 men (10.6%). The mean age was 72.77 Ϯ 7.06 years, with average schooling of 9.54 Ϯ 5.32 years. The ANOVA showed that elderly individuals who were older than 80 years of age presented worse performance on memory tasks compared with the younger age groups. With regard to schooling, elderly individuals with low schooling presented worse performance on the Verbal Fluency and Clock Drawing tests and on the Mini Mental State Examination. The two-way ANOVA revealed a significant Age ϫ Schooling interaction for Mini Mental State Examination scores. The Age ϫ Schooling interaction impacted performance of the elderly in the evaluation of global cognitive function. The present results indicated a dissociation, in which age affected memory function, and schooling affected other cognitive functions.

Objetivo: analisar a efetividade da intervenção comunitária com a utilização do guia domiciliar de exercícios físicos nas variáveis da aptidão funcional. Métodos: participaram do estudo 91 mulheres com idade ≥ 61 anos, divididas em grupo intervenção (n=49) e controle (n=42). As idosas realizaram testes de desempenho físico antes e após 12 semanas de intervenção. A intervenção foi realizada com o uso de um guia domiciliar de exercícios físicos associados a estratégias motivacionais (ligações telefônicas e visitas domiciliares). Utilizaram-se procedimentos da estatística descritiva e inferencial (teste de qui-quadrado, teste t de student para amostras independentes e ANOVA de medidas repetidas, p<0,05). Resultados: ao final da intervenção as idosas do GI apresentaram melhorias para as variáveis de resistência de membros superiores e inferiores e resistência aeróbia. Conclusão: a intervenção domiciliar de baixa interação com o uso de guia de exercícios físicos teve impacto positivo na saúde das idosas.

“…The present study showed the efficacy of the subpatellar strip in increasing MV to 1.14 m / s, suggesting a decrease in the risk of falls in the participants. In geriatric rehabilitation, the increase in MV usually predicts progress in independence and mobility (31) , since it improves physical functions, reduces disability and uses medical services (32) . The MV evaluation is simple and may indicate a good state of aging, and greater ability in recovery in episodes that the elderly undergoes an overload, such as the fall (25,33,35) .…”

Background: Postural balance consists of information emanating from the interaction of visual, somatosensory and vestibular systens. This information is impaired in aging, leading to postural control changes in the elderly, increasing the risk of falls in this population. The postural balance may be improved with the addition of sensory information, such as a subpatelar bandage. Objective: To investigate the effect of using additional sensory information in gait speed and functional mobility of older fallers. Methods: 28 elderly women were evaluated, all were considered fallers. The test Timed Up and Go (TUG) was used to assess functional mobility and 10m Test to evaluate the gait speed. The tests were performed with and without the addition of additional sensory information (subpatelar strip). The normality was verified by the Shapiro-Wilk test and the results were compared using paired Student t test and Wilcoxon test. Results: There was significant difference in the TUG (p = 0.0006) and in the gait speed (p = 0.004) with and without subpatelar strip. Conclusion:The use of additional sensory information increased the gait speed and functional mobility of older fallers.
