Paulo, Ana Caroline Lima de; Melo, Natalia Gomes; Amaral, Daniel Pereira do; Corso, Simone Dal; Correia, Natielly Beatriz SoaresThe Timed up and go test (TUG) is a simple test originally described for the assessment of functional mobility. Although widespread, there is still a dearth of studies that may contribute to the clinical interpretation of their results in specific populations. Objective: To investigate characteristics associated with low functional mobility assessed by TUG at maximum speed (TUGmax) in the elderly. Methods: This...
Desfechos associados ao teste Timed up & go em velocidade usual e máxima em idosos
Melo, Natalia Gomes; Paulo, Ana Caroline Lima de; Amaral, Daniel Pereira do; Corso, Simone Dal; Correia, Natielly Beatriz SoaresIntroduction: Timed Up & Go (TUG) is an easy test that has been shown to be associated with balance and walking speed outcomes. The test was developed for the participant to perform it at usual / comfortable speed. However, other studies already request maximum speed. Objective: To investigate the association of TUG protocols at usual and maximum speed with physical capacity outcomes and subjective outcomes. Me...
