0502/2018 - Efeitos do exercício físico sobre o risco cardiovascular e qualidade de vida em idosos hipertensos. Effects of physical exercise on cardiovascular risk and quality of life in elderly with hypertension.
Objetivos: Avaliar efeitos de um protocolo misto de exercícios físicos sobre o risco cardiovascular (RCV), qualidade de vida e presença de sintomas depressivos em idosos hipertensos. Metodologia: estudo longitudinal, prospectivo e quase-experimental com 48 idosos. Desenvolveu-se um protocolo de exercícios físicos durante 16 semanas, segundo American College Sports of Medicine e foram realizadas avaliações antropométricas (peso, estatura, índice de massa corporal e circunferência da cintura) e bioquímicas (colesterol total, LDL-c, HDL-c; triglicerídeos). Resultados: A média de idade foi de 66,5 ± 4,8 anos. Os fatores de RCV frequentes foram dislipidemia (58,3%) e sedentarismo (45,8%). Após intervenção houve redução dos valores médios de colesterol total e LDL-colesterol e aumentaram níveis de HDL- colesterol. O RCV e a pontuação do escore de risco global diminuíram significativamente. A frequência de sintomas depressivos reduziu de 25% para 4,2%. Observou-se melhoranos domínios do SF-36: físico, saúde e vitalidade. Conclusão: O protocolo misto de exercícios físicos constituiu-se em alternativa possível, de baixo custo e eficaz na melhora do perfil lipídico e da qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde dos idosos desta pesquisa.

Abstract:
Eim: To evaluate the effects of a mixed protocol of physical exercises on cardiovascular risk (CVR), quality of life and the presence of depressive symptoms in elderly hypertensive patients. Methods: longitudinal, prospective and quasi-experimental study with 48 elderly subjects. A physical exercise protocol was developed for 16 weeks according to American College Sports of Medicine and anthropometric variables (weight, height, body mass index and waist circumference) and biochemical (total cholesterol, LDL-c, HDL-c; triglycerides) were evaluated. Results: The mean age was 66.5 ± 4.8 years. The frequent CVR factors were dyslipidemia (58.3%) and sedentary lifestyle (45.8%). After intervention, there was reduction in mean values of total and LDL-cholesterol and increased HDL-cholesterol levels. The CVR and global risk score decreased significantly. The frequency of depressive symptoms decreased25% to 4.2%. Improved was observed in SF-36 domains: physical, health and vitality. Conclusion: The mixed protocol of physical exercises constituted a possible alternative, low cost and effective in the improvement of the lipid profile and the quality of life related to the health of the elderly of this research.
