Resumo
O envelhecimento implica em mudanças e adaptações. Neste processo é possível que ocorram
também alterações na percepção da qualidade vida e nível de dor. No entanto, a prática de
exercícios ou de esportes tem sido recomendada, pois podem contribuir para manutenção e melhoria
dessas condições. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar se haveriam diferenças na qualidade
de vida, aptidão física, parâmetros antropométricos e níveis de dor entre mulheres e homens idosos
praticantes de voleibol adaptado, assim como se haveriam diferenças dessas variáveis em
decorrência do gênero. Foram avaliados 19 voluntários entre 60 e 80 anos de idade, distribuídos em
2 grupos, sendo: Grupo de Mulheres Idosas Praticante de Vôlei adaptado (GMPV n= 9) e o Grupo
de Homens Idosos Praticante de Vôlei Adaptado (GHPV n= 10). Após a explicação sobre as
condições éticas e consentimento dos voluntários, foi utilizada uma anamnese específica para o
estudo seguido da aplicação do Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física – versão curta,
questionário de percepção de Qualidade de Vida (SF-36), Escala Visual de Dor e Questionário de
Dor de Mc Gill. Também foi realizado em um segundo momento avaliações antropométricas, de
composição corporal e capacidades físicas (equilíbrio, agilidade, flexibilidade e força). Os dados
foram tratados de acordo com estatística descritiva e para verificação da normalidade foi utilizado o
teste de Shapiro-Wilks´s. Para comparar diferenças entre os grupos foi utilizado o teste t Student
para as amostras independentes e o nível de significância foi estipulado em 5%, p≤0,05
(software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) (Windows 8, versão 21)). Como
resultados observou-se que, como esperado, a grande maioria da variáveis de composição corporal,
aptidão física e dados antropométricos, apresentaram diferenças significativas entre homens e
mulheres. Além disso, mesmo tendo níveis de atividade física equivalentes (muito ativos) os dados
sobre a percepção da qualidade de vida mostraram-se diferentes (melhor percepção para homens)
para alguns domínios (capacidade física, vitalidade e limitações por aspectos emocionais) e para a
média geral, oque não ocorreu em relação ao nível de dor. Concluiu se que, houve diferenças entre
homens e mulheres (maiores valores para homens) em relação grande maioria dos parâmetros
antropométricos, composição corporal, aptidão física e percepção de qualidade de vida, a não ser
para nível de dor. Em relação as diferenças na percepção da qualidade de vida, estas podem ter
ocorrido devido ao maior nível sócio econômico obtido pelos homens em relação às mulheres.
Aging implies changes and several adaptations. In this process it is possible that there are also changes in the perception of quality of life and level of pain. However, exercising and play sports has been recommended as they can contribute to the maintenance and improvement of these conditions. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze whether there would be differences in quality of life, physical fitness, anthropometric parameters and pain levels among elderly women and men adapted volleyball players, as well as if there were differences of these variables due to gender. A total of 19 volunteers, aged 60 to 80 years old, were evaluated and divided into two groups: Group of Elderly Women Adapted Volleyball Players (GMPV n = 9) and Group of Elderly Men of Adapted Volleyball Players (GHPV n = 10). After an explanation of the ethical conditions and consent of the volunteers, a specific anamnesis was used for the study, followed by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire - short version, Quality of Life perception questionnaire (SF-36), Visual Pain Scale and McGill's Pain Questionnaire. Assessments of anthropometric, body composition and physical abilities (balance, agility, flexibility and strength) were also performed in a second moment. The data were treated according to descriptive statistics and for verification of normality, the Shapiro-Wilks's test was used. Student's t-test for independent samples was used to compare the differences between groups. The level of significance was set at 5%, p≤0.05 (SPSS) (Windows 8, version 21). As results, it was observed that, as expected, the great majority of the variables of body composition, physical fitness and anthropometric data, presented significant differences between men and women. In addition, even with similar levels of physical activity (very active), the data on the perception of quality of life were different (better perception for men) for some domains (physical capacity, vitality and limitations for emotional aspects) and for the mean, which did not occur in relation to the level of pain. It was concluded that there were differences between men and women (higher values for men) in relation to a great majority of anthropometric parameters, body composition, physical fitness and perception of quality of life, except for pain level. Regarding differences in the perception of quality of life, these may have occurred due to the higher socioeconomic status obtained by men in relation to women
