Resumo
O objetivo do estudo foi analisar os efeitos de um programa Escola de Postura em relação à qualidade de vida, capacidade funcional, intensidade de dor e flexibilidade em trabalhadores com dor lombar inespecífica. Participaram 33 trabalhadores do setor administrativo. O programa foi realizado em sete encontros com quatro grupos (com sete ou oito participantes), uma vez por semana, com duração de uma hora cada. Antes e após a intervenção, os voluntários responderam ao questionário de qualidade de vida Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) e ao questionário de incapacidade funcional Roland-Morris, realizaram o teste sentar e alcançar com o banco de Wells e assinalaram a intensidade de dor na escala visual analógica. O teste estatístico de Shapiro-Wilk foi usado para analisar a normalidade de distribuição dos dados. Os dados foram analisados pelo teste Wilcoxon e pelo teste t de Student, com nível de significância de 5% (p<0,05). Foi observada melhora da qualidade de vida em sete domínios do SF-36 (p<0,005), da incapacidade funcional (p<0,005), da intensidade de dor (p<0,005) e da flexibilidade (p<0,005). O índice de adesão foi de 58,93%. O programa Escola de Postura proposto melhorou significativamente a qualidade de vida, capacidade funcional, flexibilidade e intensidade de dor de adultos trabalhadores de setores administrativos.
