The interventions found were acupuncture, group and individual activity programs, lymphatic drainage, gait and balance training associated with strengthening and bracing, mechanical ventilation, respiratory physiotherapy techniques, physical exercise along with myofascial release and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, resistance training. Conclusions: Physiotherapeutic techniques can be used to alleviate the discomfort of these patients, with positive results in reducing pain, fatigue and lymphedema, as well as improving mobility, bone density and quality of life.

Título: Benefícios da eletrolipólise na redução da adiposidade localizada na região abdominal: eletrolipólise reduz gordura abdominal Autor(es): Ribeiro, Vitória Fonteles; Melo Filho, Valdemir Martins de; Pontes, Renata Bessa; Melo, Gerfânia Jerônimo Matos de Abstract: Introduction: Electrolipolysis is a technique that treats adiposity and the accumulation of localized fatty acids, with the application of electrical currents. Objectives: To analyze the benefits of electrolipolysis in reducing adiposity located in the abdominal region and the degree of patient satisfaction. Methodo: The study was carried out with 20 women aged between 20 and 40 years with adiposity located in the abdominal region. The evaluation method used was the abdominal region perimetry and a satisfaction questionnaire, carried out after the electrolipolysis. Ten sessions were held. Results: A reduction in abdominal perimeter was observed and an improvement in the level of patient satisfaction. The average gain was 4.32cm above and 4.15cm below the navel. In assessing the degree of satisfaction for acceptance related to physical well-being, deprivation of clothing, patients' expectations and whether they would undergo or continue the treatment. The average score increased by 2 points. Conclusions: This article reached the pre-established objectives, as the use of electrolipolysis brought about a reduction in abdominal perimetry and an improvement in the degree of satisfaction, with gains mainly in terms of acceptance of physical well-being and deprivation of clothing due to localized adiposity. And yet, most people improved the grade, about themselves. Tipo: Artigo de Periódico

Título: Risco de quedas, sintomas depressivos e qualidade de vida em idosas pré-frágeis Autor(es): Molina, Gabriela Carrascosa; Bendhacka, Luiza; Vojciechowskib, Audrin Said; Michalouskia, Ruan Felipe; Melo Filho, Jarbas; Biesekb, Simone; Gomes, Anna Raquel Silveira Abstract: Introduction: Physical frailty is a geriatric syndrome most prevalent in women and it has been associated with decreased functional performance and increased risk of falls, which can lead to depression and decline quality of life. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between frailty criteria, risk of falls, depressive symptoms and quality of life (QoL) in pre-frail community-dwelling older women. Methods: Cross-sectional study was performed with 28 pre-frail older women (71±5years). The participants were assessed for frailty (Fried’s phenotype), risk of falls (Timed up and Go), depressive symptoms by Geriatric Depression Scale-15 (GDS), and QoL (SF-36). Results: The most part (82.1%) of the sample presented risk of falls. In QoL, social functioning (76±20) and physical functioning (72±20) had highest scores. Depressive symptoms were present in 32% of the sample. Correlation was observed between GDS and QoL dimensions: physical functioning (p=0.003); Limitations by role-physical (p=0.038); general health (p=0.013); vitality (p=0.009) and bodily pain (p=0.000). Fatigue presented correlation with: vitality (p=0.008); social functioning (p=0.019); role-emotional (p=0.048); mental health (p=0.029). There was also correlation between handgrip strength (HS) and social functioning (p=0.009). Conclusion: The older women presented risk of falls and lower HS. Higher scores in depressive symptoms indicating lower physical functioning, worse general health, and vitality. Also, higher fatigue indicating worse vitality, general health, mental health, role-emotional, and social functioning. Tipo: Artigo de Periódico
