| Resumo: | Background: Dizziness and imbalance are prevalent in the current population. In
order to reduce vestibular symptoms, vestibular rehabilitation (VR) appears as
therapy. In order to evaluate the interference of vestibular symptoms, the most
important is the The Balance-Specific Confidence Scale (ABC Scale), which
assesses individuals' level of confidence in performing daily activities involving
balance, acting as a predictor of risk of falls. Objective: To compare the level of
confidence of the vestibular patient in performing activities involving pre and post VR
balance. Method: Work approved by the research ethics committee (opinion
1,808,228). This is a clinical trial, classified as a longitudinal, individuated analytical
intervention study. Participants were 14 individuals of both sexes, with peripheral
vestibular disease. The ABC Scale was applied in pre and post VR conditions. The
data were analyzed in a descriptive way by Fisher's exact test, t-Sudent and the
mixed effects linear model.Results: The sample was characterized by 78.57%
female and 21.43% male, with a mean age of 59.21 years. No correlation was found
between the variables gender, age and number of therapeutic sessions. Evidence of
statistical difference was observed when comparing the ABC Scale results in pre and
post VR conditions (<0.0001). It was also possible to observe a high level of
confidence in post-VR patients. Conclusion: It was concluded that there was
evidence of statistical difference regarding time in the ABC Scale, in pre and post
vestibular rehabilitation conditions and in each individual item of the scale. The high
level of confidence of the patients was observed in the post-VR situation, revealing
the effectiveness of VR for the cases of vestibulopathies studied. |
