Objetivo: Avaliar a Qualidade de Vida (qv) e a capacidade funcional em pacientes com Doença Arterial Periférica (dap) e Úlceras Arteriais (ua).Metodologia: Estudo clínico descritivo e transversal, realizado no Sul de Minas Gerais, Brasil. Sessenta pacientes adultos alocados em três grupos —grupo dap com ua, grupo dap sem ua e grupo controle, sem dap e sem ua— foram entrevistados,utilizando-se os questionários Health Assessment Questionnaire (haq) e o Short Form-36 Health Survey (sf-36) para medir a capacidade funcional e a qv, respectivamente. Para a comparação entre os grupos, foi utilizado o teste de Kruskal-Wallis.Resultados: Quarenta e dois participantes (70%) são mulheres e a idade média foi de 63 anos. Os pacientes com dap, com ou sem ua, apresentaram incapacidade funcional significativamente maior que pacientes sem dap (p < 0,01) nos componentes relacionados a deambulação, uso de utensílios domésticos, higiene e apreensão/sustentação de objetos. Os pacientes com dap, com ou sem lesões, apresentaram sf-36 escores significativamente mais baixos —menor qv— nos domínios Capacidade funcional, Aspectos físicos, Dorcorporal, Vitalidade, Aspectos sociais e Aspecto emocional do sf-36 em relação ao grupo controle (p < 0,001). Também foram observadas diferenças significativas (p < 0,001) entre o grupo controle e o grupo com dap e ua nos domínios Estado geral desaúde e Saúde mental.Conclusão: Os pacientes com dap, com ou sem úlcera, apresentaram redução na capacidade de realização de algumas atividades cotidianas, além de baixos níveis de qv quandocomparados aos pacientes sem a doença.

Assessment Questionnaire

A avaliação geriátrica se baseia em diagnósticos funcionais interdisciplinares, sendo correntemente denominada Avaliação Geriátrica Ampla. Inicia-se pela avaliação do estado funcional, dimensão central neste contexto. Este pode ser definido como o nível com o qual a pessoa desempenha funções e atividades da vida diária. São utilizados instrumentos que, por sua vez, necessitam estar bem estudados. Importam questões psicométricas como validade e confiabilidade. Este estudo procurou revisar o histórico, utilização e adaptação dos instrumentos de avaliação funcional no âmbito internacional e no Brasil. Utilizou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura médica em livros, textos e nas bases de dados LILACS e MEDLINE. Escolhidos os instrumentos, realizou-se, em seguida, um escrutínio sistemático dos estudos de validação, confiabilidade e adaptação transcultural dos instrumentos selecionados. Dos trinta instrumentos escolhidos por critérios explícitos, apenas dois, o Medical Outcomes Study SF-36 e o Health Assessment Questionnaire, possuem adaptação para o português. Entretanto, alguns dos instrumentos revisados vêm sendo utilizados em nosso meio sem adaptação formal prévia. Conclui-se que a adaptação de instrumentos de avaliação do estado funcional é incompleta e pouco sistematizada no Brasil.

Assessment Questionnaire

Objective.The Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ) is a widely used outcome measure in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), whereas the SF-12v2 Health Survey (SF-12) was introduced recently. We investigated how the HAQ and SF-12 were associated with socio-demographic, lifestyle, and disease- and treatment-related factors in patients with RA.Methods.In RA patients from 11 Danish centers, clinical and patient-reported data, including the HAQ and SF-12, were collected. Three multiple linear regression models were estimated, with the HAQ, SF-12 physical component score (PCS), and SF-12 mental component score (MCS) as outcome and sociodemographic, lifestyle, and RA-related treatment and comorbidity characteristics as explanatory variables.Results.In total, 3156 (85%) of 3704 invited patients participated — 75% women, 76% rheumatoid factor-positive, median age 61 years (range 15–93 yrs), disease duration 7 years (range 0–68 yrs), Disease Activity Score on 28 joints (DAS28) 2.97 (range 0.96–8.61), HAQ score 0.63 (range 0–3), SF-12 PCS 56 (range 6–99), and SF-12 MCS 57 (range 16–99). Variation in HAQ was associated with 12 of 15 possible variables (R2 0.41), in PCS and MCS with 6 of 15 variables (R2 0.02 and 0.05). Patients with moderate to high DAS28 and ≥ 3 comorbid conditions had consistently worse HAQ and SF-12 scores compared to the reference groups, while weekly exercise was associated with better scores compared to no exercise.Conclusion.The HAQ was more sensitive to differences in demographic, lifestyle, and disease- and treatment-related factors than the SF-12. The established clinical value and feasibility of the HAQ highlights its advantages over the SF-12 in describing health status in RA.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE:Systemic sclerosis is an autoimmune disease characterized by abnormalities of vascularization that may cause fibrosis of the skin and other organs and lead to dysfunction. It is therefore essential to have tools capable of evaluating function in individuals with this condition. The aim of this study was to translate the Scleroderma Health Assessment Questionnaire (SHAQ) into Portuguese, adapt it to Brazilian culture and test its validity and reliability.DESIGN AND SETTING:The validation of SHAQ followed internationally accepted methodology, and was performed in university outpatient clinics.METHODS:SHAQ was translated into Portuguese and back-translated. In the cultural adaptation phase, it was applied to 20 outpatients. Items not understood by 20% of the patients were modified and applied to another 20 outpatients. Twenty patients were interviewed on two different occasions to determine the validity and reliability of the questionnaire: two interviewers on the first occasion and one interviewer 14 days later. To determine the external validity, comparisons were made with Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) and short form-36 (SF-36).RESULTS:In the interobserver evaluation, Pearson's correlation coefficient and the intraclass correlation coefficient were both 0.967. In the intraobserver evaluation, Pearson's correlation coefficient was 0.735 and the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.687. Regarding external validity, SHAQ scores were statistically correlated with all measurements, except the general health domain of SF-36 and the work-related score (Q2) of DASH.CONCLUSION:The Brazilian version of SHAQ proved to be valid and reliable for assessing function in patients with diffuse systemic sclerosis.
