ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT

Objective:

To determine the impact of postpolio-syndrome on quality of life in polio survivors.

Methods:

Forty polio survivors were included in the study. Twenty-one patients fulfilling the Halstead's postpolio-syndrome criteria participated in postpolio-syndrome group. The remaining nineteen patients formed non-postpolio-syndrome group. Control group was composed of forty healthy subjects. Quality of life was evaluated by Nottingham Health Profile, depression by Beck Depression Scale and fatigue by Fatigue Symptom Inventory. Isometric muscle strength was measured by manual muscle testing.

Results:

Total manual muscle testing score was 26.19 ± 13.24 (median 29) in postpolio-syndrome group and 30.08 ± 8.9 (median 32) in non-postpolio-syndrome group. Total manual muscle testing scores of non-postpolio-syndrome group were significantly higher than that of postpolio-syndrome group. Patients with postpolio-syndrome reported significantly higher levels of fatigue and reduced quality of life in terms of physical mobility, pain and energy when compared with patients without postpolio-syndrome and control group. It was not reported a statistically significant difference in social and emotional functioning and sleep quality between postpolio-syndrome, non-postpolio-syndrome and control groups. Also it was not found any statistically significant difference in Beck Depression Scale scores among the groups.

Conclusions:

Postpolio-syndrome has a negative impact on quality of life in terms of functional status, severity of pain and energy. The identification, early recognition and rehabilitation of postpolio-syndrome patients may result in an improvement in their quality of life.
RESUMO
RESUMO

Objetivo:

Determinar o impacto da síndrome pós-pólio na qualidade de vida nos sobreviventes da pólio.

Métodos:

Quarenta sobreviventes da pólio foram incluídos no estudo. Participaram do grupo de síndrome pós-pólio 21 pacientes que atenderam aos critérios de síndrome pós-pólio de Halstead. Os 19 restantes formaram o grupo não síndrome pós-pólio. O grupo controle foi composto por 40 indivíduos saudáveis. A qualidade de vida foi avaliada pelo Nottingham Health Profile, a depressão pela Escala de Depressão de Beck e a fadiga pelo Inventário de Sintomas de Fadiga. A força muscular isométrica foi medida por teste muscular manual.

Resultados:

O escore total do teste muscular manual foi 26,19 ± 13,24 (mediana 29) no grupo de síndrome pós-pólio e 30,08 ± 8,9 (mediana 32) no grupo não síndrome pós-pólio. Escores totais de teste muscular manual de grupo não síndrome pós-pólio foram significativamente maiores do que os do grupo de síndrome pós-pólio. Os pacientes com síndrome pós-pólio relataram níveis significativamente maiores de fadiga e qualidade de vida reduzida em termos de mobilidade física, dor e energia quando comparados com pacientes sem síndrome pós-pólio e grupo controle. Não se relatou uma diferença estatisticamente significativa no funcionamento social e emocional e na qualidade do sono entre grupos de síndrome pós-pólio, não síndrome pós-pólio e controle. Além disso, não se encontrou diferença estatisticamente significativa nos escores da Escala de Depressão de Beck entre os grupos.

Conclusões:

A síndrome pós-pólio tem um impacto negativo na qualidade de vida em termos de estado funcional, gravidade da dor e energia. A identificação, o reconhecimento precoce e a reabilitação dos pacientes com síndrome pós-pólio podem resultar em uma melhoria da qualidade de vida.
