Summary: | The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors associated with negative Health Perception and Quality of Life (QoL) of older adults. This was a cross-sectional study composed of 224 older adults with a median age of 70.58±6.43 years old. A questionnaire was designed to incorporate ABEP (socioeconomic questionnaire), WHOQOL-BREF, IPAQ, and Senior Fitness Test (SFT). Binary logistic regression with p>0.05, organized in univariate and multivariate models in SPSS version 22. Variables upper extremities poor flexibility OR = 2.43 (1.37 – 4.31) and lower extremities poor flexibility OR = 2.69 (1.54 – 4.69) were significantly associated with negative health perception. Being not financial responsible OR= 0.33 (0.12 – 0.85) presented lower odds of negative QoL perception. The variable Lower extremities poor flexibility univariate OR= 2.52 (1.45 – 4.39) and multivariate model OR= 2.42 (1.38 – 4.24) showed almost three times higher probabilities of negative QoL perception.
O objetivo desse estudo foi analisar os fatores associados à percepção negativa de saúde e Qualidade de Vida (QV) de idosos brasileiros. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, com amostra de 224 idosos com média de idade de 70.58±6,43 anos. Foi confeccionado um questionário de incorporou o questionário socioeconômico da ABEP, WHOQOL-BREF, IPAQ e Senior Fitness Test (SFT). A análise estatística foi realizada através de regressão logística binária, organizada em modelos univariável e multivariável, realizada no SPSS versão 22. As variáveis reduzida flexibilidade de membros superiores OR = 2.43 (1.37 – 4.31) e reduzida flexibilidade de membros inferiores OR = 2.69 (1.54 – 4.69) tiveram associação estatisticamente significativas com a percepção negativa de saúde. Não ser financeiramente responsável OR= 0.33 (0.12 – 0.85) apresentou menores chances de percepção negativa de QV. A variável flexibilidade reduzida de membros inferiores no modelo univariável OR= 2.52 (1.45 – 4.39) e multivariável OR= 2.42 (1.38 – 4.24) apresentaram quase três vezes mais chances de percepção negativa de QV. |
