Previous issue date: 2016-12-05 / Technological development in the area of health has allowed the improvement of
practices such as electronic patient records, access to various data, monitoring of
biological signs, imaging, training and planning procedures as well as diagnostic
support tools. In this context, the use of mobile devices such as the smartphone is an
area with great potential due to ease of handling and its computational capacity. This
work deals with the development and testing of an application for mobile devices
capable of capturing the oscillations of the human body at a static position through
accelerometer embedded in a smartphone for use by health professionals as a tool
for balance and fall risk assessment of the elderly. The bibliographic review proposed
in this paper confirms the competence of these instruments in the functional postural
evaluation of the elderly, balance and gait analysis. Based on the results of the
present study, the developed application was able to perform an assessment of the
body balance and classify the results into two groups of low and high fall risk. / No campo da sa??de, o desenvolvimento tecnol??gico permitiu o aperfei??oamento de
pr??ticas como o prontu??rio eletr??nico do paciente, acesso a bando de dados,
monitora????o de sinais biol??gicos, exames de imagem, treinamento e planejamento
de procedimentos bem como ferramenta de apoio diagn??stico. Sendo assim, o uso
de dispositivos m??veis como o smartphone ?? uma ??rea com grande potencial devido
a facilidade do manejo e sua capacidade computacional. Este trabalho trata do
desenvolvimento e teste de um aplicativo para dispositivos m??veis capaz de captar
as oscila????es do corpo humano na posi????o est??tica atrav??s de um aceler??metro
embutido em um smartphone para uso de profissionais da sa??de como ferramenta
de avalia????o do equil??brio e risco de queda de idosos. A revis??o liter??ria apresentada
neste trabalho confirma a compet??ncia destes instrumentos na avalia????o funcional
postural de idosos, do equil??brio e an??lise de marcha. Com base nos resultados do
presente estudo, o aplicativo desenvolvido foi capaz de realizar o teste do equil??brio
e classificar os avaliados em dois grupos de baixo e alto risco de queda.
