ATQ apresentam escores de Qualidade de Vida Relacionada ?? Sa??de (QVRS) compar??veis a indiv??duos assintom??ticos, bem como verificar se aspectos funcionais est??o associados aos resultados dos escores de QVRS em indiv??duos submetido a ATQ. MATERIAS E M??TODOS: Trata-se de um estudo transversal, descritivo e anal??tico. Os pacientes selecionados foram divididos em dois grupos: o grupo ATQ e o grupo de indiv??duos assintom??ticos, composto por sujeitos sem queixas de problemas, da mesma faixa et??ria. O estudo constou de aplica????o de formul??rio padronizado para coleta de vari??veis sociodemogr??ficas, avalia????o da QVRS pelo SF-36 e de fun????o do quadril atrav??s do Harris Hip Score (HHS). RESULTADOS: Foram avaliados 52 indiv??duos assintom??ticos e 51 pacientes submetidos a ATQ. Os escores de QVRS foram significativamente menores no grupo ATQ em todos os dom??nios do SF-36, particularmente nos dom??nios Capacidade Funcional, Aspectos F??sicos e Dor. Quando realizada a compara????o dos escores de QVRS de acordo com os resultados do HHS, nota-se que pacientes com HHS considerados bom ou excelente apresentaram menores pontua????es do SF-36 nos dom??nios Aspectos F??sicos, Estado Geral de Sa??de, Vitalidade e Aspectos Sociais, quando comparados com o grupo assintom??tico; os escores dos dom??nios Capacidade Funcional, Dor, Aspectos Funcionais e Sa??de Mental n??o foram significativamente diferentes nesta an??lise. Na an??lise multivari??vel a matriz de correla????es demonstrou que tanto o tempo de diagn??stico at?? a cirurgia como a intensidade da dor foram os fatores que mais fortemente impactaram na avalia????o da QVRS ap??s ATQ. CONCLUS??O: Pacientes submetidos a ATQ apresenta escores de qualidade de vida medidos pelo SF-36 inferiores a pares assintom??ticos, especialmente nos dom??nios Capacidade Funcional, Aspectos F??sicos e Dor. A obten????o de altos escores funcionais ap??s ATQ medidos pelo HHS contribui para melhores pontua????es na QVRS. Houve tamb??m influ??ncia negativa indireta da demora em instituir tratamento cir??rgico e da intensidade da dor tendo em vista que estes dois fatores estiveram associados a piores resultados funcionais.

Úbytek svalové hmoty - sarkopenie u seniorů / The decline in skeletal muscle mass - sarcopenia in seniors

KADEŘÁBKOVÁ, Hana January 2019 (has links)
As the age increases, the physical fitness of seniors decreases. This shows the fragility of their body. Managing everyday activities becomes increasingly more difficult for them. Result of this is reduced self-sufficiency of the seniors, which leads to reduced mobility and to the greater loss of muscle mass and higher dependence on professional care. Aging is accompanied by loss of muscle mass and muscle strength - sarcopenia. This is one of the main causes of geriatric fragility. Sarcopenia presents a serious health problem with both social and economic consequences. The term sarcopenia (from Greek words sarx - meaning flesh referring to muscle and penia - loss) was first used in 1989 by Irwin Rosenberg to describe the loss of muscle mass accompanying aging. Exactly defining the term sarcopenia has helped explain this gradual loss of muscle mass. Three objectives were set in the thesis. The first objective was to find out whether sarcopenia reduces the quality of life in the elderly. The second goal was to determine, which quality of life tests are suitable for testing sarcopenia and the last one was whether the SARC - F questionnaire predicts sarcopenia.Quantitative research was used for the empirical part of this work. Data collection was performed using a method of a questionnaire. These were standardized questionnaires aimed at assessing sarcopenia and quality of life. The research was carried out with a total of 77 respondents with sarcopenia and respondents without sarcopenia. The quantitative part of the research was statistically processed using the MS Excel computer program.

Made available in DSpace on 2016-08-10T10:54:52Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 LUCIANO FERREIRA FREITAS.pdf: 1085209 bytes, checksum: 8cb6cea15bb3c1928d3054d4967c8bf7 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-10-02 / This study aims to evaluate the quality of life as well as the relationship of this with the socioeconomic and demographic profile and the length of service of workers motorcycle taxi drivers in the city of Aparecida de Goiânia-GO. For this, we carried out an analytical study of the quantitative cross-sectional with a sample of 133 male motorcycle taxi drivers. To check the profile of these workers, a sociodemographic questionnaire and the socioeconomic questionnaire was applied, Criteria of Economic Classification Brazil (CCEB). To assess quality of life, the WHO Quality of Life (WHOQOL-BREF) questionnaire and the Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) were used. Regarding sociodemographic profiles, there was a predominance of workers, married (53.4%), with up to two children (78.9%), aged 18-40 years old (56.4%), primary school education(64 7%), between one and five years of professional practice (57.9%), and belonging to the C economic class (66.2%). Concerning quality of life, WHOQOL-Bref, it was found that the domain "environment" (52.09) and the domain "social relations" (68.23) were the ones with lowest score and the best scores obtained were in "physical" domain (74.89) and "psychological" (70.52). In the SF-36, the domain "pain" (49.59) is the most negative impact on the quality of life of these professionals and the domain "functional capacity" (81.17) was the one who got the best score. Comparing the demographic data and the length of service with the quality of life WHOQOL-Bref, significant differences in the field "environment" (p = 0.029), indicating that the group with the lowest function of time had worse quality of life that the group with greater seniority. In the SF-36, there was a significant difference in the fields "vitality" (p = 0.025) and "mental health" (p = 0.005) relative to the variable "marital status" in which the married participants had better quality of life in these areas. There was also a significant difference on "vitality" (p = 0.029) relative to the variable "age in years", indicating that the age group up to 40 years had worse quality of life compared to the older group. Compared to the variable "schooling" there was significant difference in the field "general health" (p = 0.047) in those with primary education had a poorer quality of life to those with high school. There was a significant difference in the field "vitality" (p = 0.020) compared to the variable "function of time" in which the group with the shortest time had worse quality of life compared to the older group. When comparing the WHOQOL-Bref with socioeconomic data for all economic classes, the highest score was the "physical" domain and the lowest was in the field "environment." In the analysis of the areas of the SF-36 compared to the socioeconomic data, significant differences were found in the domain "pain" (p = 0.005), indicating the participants in classes D and E with worse quality of life compared to the B and C classes. This study has highlighted the need to implement strategies for improving the quality of life of this class of workers. / Este trabalho tem por objetivo avaliar a qualidade de vida, bem como as relações dessa com o perfil socioeconômico e sociodemográfico e o tempo de serviço dos trabalhadores mototaxistas da cidade de Aparecida de Goiânia-GO. Para isso, foi realizado um estudo analítico do tipo transversal quantitativo com uma amostra de 133 mototaxistas do sexo masculino. Para verificar o perfil desses trabalhadores, foi aplicado um questionário sociodemográfico e o questionário socioeconômico, Critério de Classificação Econômica do Brasil (CCEB). Para avaliar a qualidade de vida desses mototaxistas, utilizaram-se dois instrumentos, o Whoqol-Bref e o SF-36. Quanto ao perfil sociodemográfico, verificou-se a predominância de trabalhadores, casados (53,4%), com até dois filhos (78,9%), faixa etária de 18 a 40 anos (56,4%), ensino fundamental (64,7%), entre um a cinco anos de exercício da profissão (57,9%), e pertencentes à classe econômica C (66,2%). Em relação à qualidade de vida, no Whoqol-Bref, o domínio meio ambiente (52,09) e relações sociais (68,23) foram os de menor escore e os melhores foram no domínio físico (74,89) e no psicológico (70,52). No SF-36, o domínio dor (49,59) é o que mais interfere negativamente na qualidade de vida desses profissionais e o domínio capacidade funcional (81,17) foi o que obteve o melhor escore. Na comparação entre os dados sociodemográficos e o tempo de serviço com a qualidade de vida do Whoqol-Bref, houve diferença significativa no domínio meio ambiente (p=0,029), indicando que o grupo com menor tempo de função teve pior qualidade de vida em relação ao grupo com maior tempo de serviço. No SF-36, houve uma diferença significativa nos domínios vitalidade (p=0,025) e saúde mental (p=0,005) em relação à variável estado civil , em que os participantes casados apresentaram melhor qualidade de vida nestes domínios. Houve uma diferença significativa também no domínio vitalidade (p=0,029) em relação à variável idade em anos , indicando que o grupo com idade até 40 anos teve pior qualidade de vida em relação ao grupo mais velho. Na comparação com a variável escolaridade , houve diferença significativa no domínio estado geral de saúde (p=0,047), em que aqueles com ensino fundamental apresentaram pior qualidade de vida aos que possuem ensino médio. Houve diferença significativa no domínio vitalidade (p=0,020) na comparação com a variável tempo de função , em que o grupo com menor tempo teve pior qualidade de vida em relação ao grupo mais antigo. Ao comparar o Whoqol-Bref com os dados socioeconômicos, para todas as classes econômicas, a maior pontuação foi no domínio físico e a menor foi no domínio meio ambiente . Na análise dos domínios do SF-36 em comparação com os dados socioeconômicos, houve diferença significativa no domínio dor (p=0,005) indicando os participantes das classes D e E com pior qualidade de vida em relação aos das classes B e C. Este estudo permitiu evidenciar a necessidade de implantar estratégias em prol da melhoria da qualidade de vida dessa classe de trabalhadores.

Avaliação da qualidade de vida das mulheres que apresentam cefaléia / Evaluation of the quality of life of the women who present chronic headache

Evangelista, Renata Alessandra 12 November 2007 (has links)
Nas últimas décadas, as doenças crônicas têm desempenhado um importante papel na morbimortalidade da população mundial atingindo não só a população idosa, mas também jovens em idade produtiva e principalmente mulheres. Dentre as doenças a cefaléia tem sido considerada uma das principais causas de doença do indivíduo adulto em todo o mundo industrializado e na maioria dos países em fase de desenvolvimento, principalmente, nos grandes centros urbanos, como uma doença crônica. A alta prevalência da doença tem se tornado um grande problema de saúde pública afetando milhares de pessoas e, conseqüentemente, a Qualidade de Vida dessa população. O presente estudo é do tipo transversal com objetivo geral de avaliar a prevalência da cefaléia nas mulheres de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior e a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde das mesmas de um município do estado de Minas Gerais, no ano de 2006, segundo o Instrumento genérico de avaliação de QVRS, SF-36. A coleta de dados foi realizada junto a mulheres no período entre setembro e dezembro de 2006. Considerando os critérios de exclusão, 150 mulheres foram selecionados para participarem deste estudo, destas 72 faziam parte do grupo de Migrânea, 30 faziam parte do grupo Cefaléia Tensional e 48 não apresentaram cefaléia nos últimos 06 meses. Os resultados relacionados às variáveis aspectos clínicos da dor e impacto (freqüência das crises, intensidade da dor, sintomas associados às crises de dor) nos grupos que apresentavam migrânea e cefaléia tensional foram apresentados e discutidos. Os descritores de maior atribuição relatados pelas mulheres que apresentam migrânea foram alucinante fulminante, insuportável e os de menor atribuição foram aniquiliadora, colossal e brutal. Para as mulheres que apresentavam cefaléia tensional os descritores de maior atribuição foram dilacerante, desumana, terrível, e os de menor atribuição foram desgraçada, apavorante e pavorosa. Os escores padronizados do instrumento SF-36, segundo seus domínios foram apresentados e discutidos segundo os quartis, valores máximos e mínimos e representados por meio de tabelas. Adicionalmente, valores médios e respectivos desvios-padrão foram apresentados. A consistência interna do instrumento foi verificada por meio dos valores de alfa de Cronbach entre os domínios da escala. O programa estatístico SPSS, versão 12.1 para Windows foi utilizado. Entre as mulheres investigadas, idade média igual a 24,5 anos, com desvio-padrão de 8,21 anos,para o grupo Migrânea e idade média igual a 33,5 anos, com desvio-padrão de 9,2 anos,para o grupo Cefaléia Tensional. Em relação às propriedades de medida do SF-36, foi obtido um valor para alfa de Cronbach igual a 0,92, mostrando que houve consistência nas respostas dos indivíduos às questões. Tal resultado pôde ser verificado, também, para cada um dos domínios do SF-36, com valor mínimo para o alfa de Cronbach igual a 0,49 e máximo igual a 0,91. O grupo estudado apresentou um maior comprometimento nos domínios Vitalidade, Dor, Saúde Mental e Aspectos Físicos / In recent decades, chronic diseases have played an important role in global morbidity and mortality rates, affecting not only the aged population, but also young people in the productive age group. Amongst the illnesses the chronic headache has been considered one of the main causes of illness of the adult individual in industrialized the whole world and the majority of the countries in development phase, mainly, in the great urban centers, as a chronic illness. The high prevalence of the illness if has become a great problem of public health affecting thousand of people and, consequently, the Quality of Life of this population. The present study it is of the transversal type with general objective to evaluate the prevalence of the chronic headache in the women of an Institution of Superior Education and the quality of life related to the health of the same ones of a city of the state of Minas Gerais, in the year of 2006, according to generic Instrument of QVRS evaluation, SF-36. The collection of data was carried through next to women in the period between September and December of 2006. Considering the exclusion criteria, 150 women had been selected to participate of this study, of these 72 were part of the group of Migrânea, 30 were part of the group Tensional Chronic headache and 48 had not presented chronic headache in last the 06 months. The results related to the changeable clinical aspects of pain and impact (frequency of the crises, intensity of pain, symptoms associates to the pain crises) in the groups that presented migraine and tensional chronic headache had been presented and argued. The describers of bigger attribution told by the women who present migraine had been alucinante sudden, insuportável and of lesser attribution they had been aniquiliadora, colossal and brutal. For the women who presented tensional chronic headache the describers of bigger attribution had been dilacerante, desumana, terrible, and of lesser attribution they had been poor fellow, appalling and dreadful. You prop up them standardized of instrument SF-36, according to its dominious had been presented and argued according to quartiles, maximum and minimum and represented values by means of tables. Additionally, average and respective values shunting line-standard had been presented. The internal consistency of the instrument was verified by means of the values of alpha of Cronbach enters the dominious of the scale. The statistical program SPSS, version 12.1 for Windows was used. Between the investigated women, equal average age the 24,5 years, with shunting line-standard of 8,21 years, for the Migrânea group and equal average age the 33,5 years, with shunting line-standard of 9,2 years, for the group Tensional Chronic headache. We obtained a Cronbachs alpha of 0.92 for the measurement properties of SF- 36, which revealed consistency between the individuals answers to the questions.
