ENQUADRAMENTO: As quedas têm um forte impacto nos indivíduos, famílias e
comunidade. Estas estão associadas a uma maior morbidade, mortalidade, aumento de
deficit funcional e institucionalização precoce. A reduzida perceção da autoeficácia no
equilíbrio é cada vez mais correlacionada com o elevado risco de queda, constituindo,
focos importantes para a Enfermagem de reabilitação (ER).
OBJETIVOS: (1) Descrever as características sociodemográficas e de saúde dos clientes
alvo de cuidados de Enfermagem de Reabilitação (ER) nas unidades de Redes de Cuidados
Continuados Integrados (RRCCI), do SESARAM, EPERAM; (2) Descrever os níveis de
equilíbrio (com estratificação do risco de queda) e os níveis de perceção da autoeficácia e
(3) Analisar a correlação entre a perceção da autoeficácia e o equilíbrio.
METODOLOGIA: Desenho transversal, quantitativo, descritivo e correlacional. Amostra
de 34 clientes institucionalizados, 23 mulheres e 11 homens com uma média de idades de
66.65 anos. Utilizou-se um protocolo para a colheita de dados de caracterização e dois
instrumentos de colheita de dados: a escala de equilíbrio de Berg (EEB) e, em relação à
perceção da autoeficácia, a escala de avaliação na confiança no equilíbrio específica da
atividade (ABC scale). A relação entre as duas variáveis foi investigada através da
correlação de Pearson.
RESULTADOS: 50% dos participantes experimentaram queda nos últimos 12 meses.
4,2% apresentaram elevado risco de queda, 62,5% risco médio e 33,3% baixo risco. O
score médio bruto registado para a ABC scale foi de 523,70, traduzindo baixos níveis de
perceção da autoeficácia. Entre as variáveis estudadas verificou-se uma correlação positiva
e moderada, com elevados níveis de confiança associados a elevados níveis de equilíbrio,
contudo, esta relação não atingiu significância estatística (r= .376, n=24, p=.070).
CONCLUSÃO: Existe uma associação positiva entre as variáveis estudadas. Os resultados
justificam a inclusão de intervenções específicas dirigidas a estas duas variáveis em
programas de reabilitação.
BACKGROUND: Falls have a strong impact on individuals, families and the community. These are associated with increased morbidity and mortality, but are also related to an increase in functional deficit and early institutionalization. The reduced perception of selfefficacy in balance is increasingly correlated with the high risk of falling, constituting important focuses for Rehabilitation Nursing (RE). OBJECTIVES: (1) To describe the socio-demographic and health characteristics of the target clients of ER care in the units of Continuous Integrated Care Networks (RRCCI), of SESARAM, EPERAM; (2) Describe the levels of balance (with stratification of the risk of falling) and the levels of self-efficacy perception and (3) Analyze the correlation between the perception of self-efficacy and balance. METHODOLOGY: Cross-sectional, quantitative, descriptive and correlational design. Sample of 34 institutionalized clients, 23 women and 11 men with an average age of 66.65 years. A protocol for the collection of characterization data and two data collection instruments were used: the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and, in relation to the perception of self-efficacy, the scale for assessing confidence in the specific balance of the activity (ABC scale). The relationship between the two variables was investigated using Pearson's correlation. RESULTS: 50% of the participants experienced a fall in the last 12 months. 4.2% had high risk of falling, 62.5% medium risk and 33.3% low risk. The mean gross score recorded for the ABC scale was 523.70, reflecting low levels of self-efficacy perception. Among the variables studied, there was a positive and moderate correlation, with high levels of confidence associated with high levels of balance, however, this relationship did not reach statistical significance (r= .376, n=24, p=.070). CONCLUSION: There is a positive association between the studied variables. The results justify the inclusion of specific interventions aimed at these two variables in rehabilitation programs.
