Qualidade de vida e saúde de pessoas submetidas a cirurgia de descompressão do nervo mediano

Abstract

Enquadramento: A Síndrome do Túnel Cárpico (STC) é uma doença musculoesquelética que afeta a funcionalidade superior. Objetivo: Avaliar, no pré-operatório e aos dois meses pós-cirurgia, a gravidade dos sintomas e o estado funcional, através do Questionário de Boston (QB) e a qualidade de vida através do SF-36 v2. Metodologia: Estudo prospectivo, realizado em 50 pacientes (60,7±11,7 anos) submetidos a cirurgia de descompressão. Os participantes eram maioritariamente mulheres (52%) e, destas, 62% eram pós-menopáusicas. Como fatores de risco para a STC encontrámos ainda diabetes (8%), sobrepeso (48%), obesidade de grau I (26%) e grau II (4%). Resultados: No pré-operatório, a mão afetada apresentava valores significativamente inferiores de força de preensão e pinça digital quando comparada com a mão contralateral. Os resultados do follow-up sugerem diminuição da severidade dos sintomas e incremento do estado funcional. Conclusão: Mudanças significativas na direção da melhoria da qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde, observadas nas sub-escalas do SF-36 v2: função física, dor corporal, saúde mental, desempenho emocional, função social e vitalidade.
