Síndrome da fragilidade no idoso: importância da fisioterapia
Conteúdo do artigo principal
Resumo
A fragilidade é conceituada como uma síndrome clínica, que pode ser identificada por perda de peso involuntária, exaustão, fraqueza, diminuição da velocidade da marcha e do equilíbrio e diminuição da atividade física. Cada uma dessas manifestações clínicas é preditora de uma série de reações adversas (quedas, hospitalização, institucionalização, declínio funcional e morte). O objetivo desta revisão de literatura foi expor os elementos sobre a Síndrome da Fragilidade dos Idosos, em uma revisão narrativa da literatura, dando um panorama geral sobre epidemiologia, tendências atuais, ciclo da fragilidade, sarcopenia, alterações imunológicas, alterações neuroendócrinas, diagnósticos clínico, laboratorial e diferencial e as possibilidades de intervenções fisioterapêuticas. Para esses fins, realizou-se revisão bibliográfica da literatura nacional e internacional sobre o tema. Com o conhecimento de estudos envolvendo idosos frágeis, é possível planejar as estratégias voltadas para a identificação da parcela da população que mais se beneficiaria de ações para postergar, atenuar e, se possível, reverter tais desfechos.
