| Abstract | A medida que a idade cronologica aumenta, as pessoas se tornam menos ativas, reduzindo assim suas capacidades funcionais (CF). Para os idosos, a CF representa um potencial de decisao e atuacao em suas vidas, uma vez que a falta de autonomia e independencia gera uma grande vulnerabilidade deste individuo comprometendo o bem-estar e a qualidade de vida (QV). O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o programa de exercicios aquaticos na qualidade de vida e capacidade funcional das idosas da UNATI PUC-GO. Este estudo caracteriza-se por ser analitico quase experimental longitudinal e quantitativo, no qual a populacao inicial foi composta de 30 idosas, finalizando 16 dentro dos criterios de inclusao. A avaliacao da QV foi realizada por meio do questionario WHOQOL-Bref e para avaliacao da capacidade funcional (CF) foi utilizado o teste de caminhada de seis minutos (TC6’). As coletas de dados foram realizadas na Clinica Escola Vida da PUC – GO por um periodo de tres meses. As comparacoes pre e pos-intervencao foram realizadas pelo teste T-pareado. Estatistica realizada no SPSS versao 20.0 adotando significância com valor de p≤0,05 e a normalidade dos dados foi testada por meio do teste de Shapiro-Wilk. Foi encontrada diferenca estatistica significante na comparacao entre o pre e pos do TC6’ (p Functional capacity and quality of life in elderly aquatic exercising practicers As chronological age increases, people become less active, thus reducing their functional abilities (CF). For the elderly, CF represents a potential decision and action in their lives, since the lack of autonomy and independence generates a great vulnerability of this individual compromising well-being and quality of life (QoL). The objective of this study was to evaluate the aquatic exercise program in the quality of life and functional capacity of the elderly of UNATI PUC-GO. This study is characterized by being almost experimental longitudinal and quantitative, in which the initial population was composed of 30 elderly women, finishing 16 within the inclusion criteria. The QOL assessment was performed using the WHOQOL-Bref questionnaire and the six-minute walk test (6MWT) was used to assess functional capacity (FC). Data collection was performed at the Life School Clinic of PUC - GO for a period of three months. Pre- and post-intervention comparisons were performed by the paired T-test. Statistic performed in SPSS version 20.0 adopting significance with value of p≤0.05 and the normality of the data was tested using the Shapiro-Wilk test. A significant statistical difference was found in the comparison between pre and post TC6 '(p <0.001) and QOL in the psychological (p 0.044), environmental (p 0,038) and general (p 0,011) domains. |
