Resumo: | INTRODUCTION: The low level of physical activity and sedentary behavior worsen the
condition of patients after stroke. (CVA), they can even increase the risk of these patients
having new stroke events. Therefore, physical exercise programs that promote an active
lifestyle must be implemented in post-stroke patients. However, do professionals who care for
these patients know the influence of sedentary behavior and the importance of an active
lifestyle? PURPOSE: to evaluate the knowledge of physical therapists in Brazil about the active
lifestyle of post-stroke patients and to compare the knowledge between physical therapists
working of in the fieldwith neurofunctional physiotherapy and those not working.
METHODOLOGY: This is a cross-sectional observational study using an online questionnaire
with physiotherapy professionals from Brazil who were divided into two groups: those who
worked in the neurofunctional area as the area of major activity and those from other areas.
Professionals who were away from therapeutic practice were excluded. The questionnaire was
developed on the Google Forms® platform, sent through social networks and email registered
in the respective Regional Councils of Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy. RESULTS:
Of the 174 participants, we saw that professionals working in neurofunctional physical therapy
have greater knowledge of studies that show the importance of physical activity (p < 0.0001).
However, in relation to knowing the expression sedentary behavior, half (50%) of the
professionals working in neurofunctional physical therapy did not know the expression and
there was no difference between the groups (p=0.311). CONCLUSION: there was a difference
in knowledge among professionals working with neurofunctional physiotherapy regarding the
importance of physical activity practice and the benefits of this training in post-stroke patients,
even half not to knowing the term sedentary time. |
