Previous issue date: 2016-03-21 / UCB / Introduction: The foot plantar arch is essential to maintain a correct body biomechanics. However,
due to aging, changes occur in the foot anatomical and physiological structures, which can hinder
ambulation and interfere in the individual's quality of life. It is important to remind that currently one
of the main concerns related especially to the elderly is the occurrence of falls. Objective: This study
aimed at determining whether there is correlation between the plantar arch type and the risk of falls in
sedentary elderly women. Methods: A cross-sectional, quantitative study with 47 elderly women
between 60-69 years old, attending a support group called Programa Idade Viva in the municipality of
Barreiras/BA. It was used the Functional Reach Test (FRT) and the Timed Get Up and Go (TUG Test)
to evaluate the balance, along with the plantar evaluation test through a Pedigraph. Results: The
results showed that among the subjects who presented risk of falls through the Functional Reach Test
(FRT), most of them had an intermediary type of plantar arch. According to the TUG test, most elderly
were considered fragile (with low risk of falling), and none had increased risk of
falling. Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between the plantar arch and the risk of falls,
it is suggested further research with a larger number of subjects to identify the influence of the plantar
arch on the elderly balance. / Introdu????o: O arco plantar do p?? ?? essencial para a manuten????o de uma correta biomec??nica corporal.
Por??m, em fun????o do envelhecimento, acontecem modifica????es nas estruturas anat??micas e
fisiol??gicas do p??, as quais podem atrapalhar a deambula????o e interferir na qualidade de vida do
indiv??duo. Vale lembrar que atualmente uma das principais preocupa????es relacionadas, em especial,
aos indiv??duos da terceira idade ?? a ocorr??ncia de quedas. Objetivo: Esse estudo teve como objetivo
verificar se h?? correla????o do tipo de arco plantar com o risco de quedas em idosas sedent??rias.
M??todo: Foi realizado um estudo transversal, quantitativo, com 47 idosas de 60 a 69 anos de idade,
participantes do Programa Idade Viva, no munic??pio de Barreiras/BA. Utilizou-se o Teste de Alcance
Funcional (TAF) e o Timed Get Up and Go (Tug Test) para avalia????o do equil??brio, al??m do exame da
avalia????o plantar por meio de um Ped??grafo. Resultados: Os resultados demonstraram que dos sujeitos
que apresentaram risco de queda atrav??s do Teste de Alcance Funcional (TAF), a maioria deles
possu??am tipo de arco plantar intermedi??rio. De acordo com o TUG teste, a maioria dos idosos foram
considerados fr??geis (com baixo risco de queda), sendo que nenhum apresentou risco de queda
aumentado. Conclus??o: N??o houve rela????o significativa do tipo de arco plantar com o risco de
quedas, sugere-se mais pesquisas, com um maior n??mero de sujeitos, para identificar a influ??ncia do
arco plantar no equil??brio de idosos.
