ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective To determine how often sitting/rising from a chair should be assessed in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients to avoid redundant/missing data. Methods Sitting/rising from a chair was evaluated in 26 DMD children (5-12 yrs), in three-month intervals, over twelve months, with the Functional Evaluation Scale (domain sitting/rising from a chair). Scores were compared by effect sizes (ES) and standardized response means (SRM) (responsiveness analysis). Results Sit-to-stand showed low-to-moderate responsiveness in three-month intervals (ES:0.23-0.32; SRM:0.36-0.68), moderate-to-high responsiveness in six-month intervals (ES:0.52-0.65; SRM:0.76-1.28), high responsiveness at nine-month (ES:0.84-0.91; SRM:1.26-1.64) and twelve-month intervals (ES:1.27; SRM:1.48). Stand-to-sit showed low responsiveness in three-month intervals (ES:0.26-0.49; SRM:0.37-0.42), moderate responsiveness in six-month intervals (ES:0.50-0.78; SRM:0.56-0.71), high responsiveness in nine-month (ES:0.94-1.00; SRM:0.84-1.02) and twelve-month intervals (ES:1.13; SRM:1.52). Conclusion Six months or longer intervals for reassessment are indicated to evaluate sitting/standing from a chair in DMD patients.


RESUMO Objetivo Determinar a frequência de avaliação do sentar e levantar da cadeira em pacientes com distrofia muscular de Duchenne (DMD), para evitar informações faltantes ou redundantes. Métodos Sentar/ Levantar foram avaliados em 26 crianças com DMD (5-12 anos), em intervalos de três meses, durante doze meses, com a Escala de Avaliação Funcional (domínio sentar/ levantar da cadeira). Os tamanhos do efeito (TE) e as médias de resposta padronizada (MRP) foram usados na análise de responsividade. Resultados Levantar da cadeira teve responsividade baixa a moderada em três meses (TE: 0,23-0,32; MRP: 0,36-0,68), moderada a alta em seis meses (TE: 0,52-0,65; MRP: 0,76-1,28), alta em nove e (TE: 0,84-0,91; MRP: 1,26-1,64) doze meses (TE: 1,27; MRP: 1,48). Sentar na cadeira teve responsividade baixa em três meses (TE: 0,26-0,49; MRP: 0,37-0,42), moderada em seis meses (TE: 0,50-0,78; MRP: 0,56-0,71), alta em nove (TE: 0,94-1,00; MRP: 0,84-1,02) e doze meses (TE: 1,13; MRP: 1,52). Conclusão Os pacientes com DMD devem ser reavaliados com intervalos mínimos de seis meses entre avaliações de sentar/ levantar da cadeira.
