Resumo(s)
Introdução: O envelhecimento altera muitos dos processos perceptivo-motores e cognitivos os quais são determinantes na recuperação e manutenção do equilíbrio em tarefas motoras diárias.
Objectivos: Avaliar os efeitos da dupla tarefa no controlo do equilíbrio de indivíduos seniores e especificamente explorar a sua influência nos parâmetros espaço temporais de tarefas estáticas e dinâmicas.
Metodologia: Estudo observacional e transversal Numa amostra de 36 sujeitos de 71±5,7 anos fez-se a recolha de dados através do sistema APDM® Mobility Lab. Estes dados permitiram identificar a influência da dupla tarefa no equilíbrio estático e dinâmico em sujeitos idosos.
Resultados e Discussão: A presença de uma tarefa cognitiva representa um fator acrescido com consequências na estabilidade do Postural sway e Ciclo de Marcha. Na realização do sit to stand, turning e o turn to sit, a tarefa motora torna-se o fator mais importante.
Conclusões: As tarefas cognitiva e motora determinam consequências nas atividades diárias realizadas pelo indivíduo sénior. O APDM® Mobility Lab System permite uma recolha com resultados fiáveis, que podem indicar um caminho de intervenção para o fisioterapeuta, com a elaboração de estratégias de intervenção mais adequados a este tipo de população de forma a prevenir uma queda precoce.
Background: Aging alters many of the perceptual-motor and cognitive processes, which are crucial to the recovery and maintenance of balance in daily motor tasks Objective: determine the effects on balance control of attempting a dual task on balance in elderly people and to explore the changes in the different temporal space parameters in static and dynamic balance. Methods: An observational, cross study. With a sample of 36 subjects, (73±5,7 years), data was collected through the APDM® Mobility Lab. The data collected allowed us to identify the influence of the dual task on static and dynamic balance in elderly people. Results / Discussion: The presence of a cognitive task is an additional factor with consequences in postural sway and gait cycle. In activities such as sit to stand, turning and turn to sit, the motor task turns the basic motor task becomes the primary one. Conclusions: Cognitive and motor tasks determine consequences in the frequent daily activities of the elderly subjects. The APDM® Mobility Lab System enables data collection with reliable results that could guide the intervention approach used by physiotherapists with development of new intervention strategies more appropriate to this type of subjects to prevent early falls.
