Abstract(s)
Com o presente estudo pretendeu-se observar o padrão de actividade física na
mulher antes, durante e depois da gravidez, e os determinantes que levam à prática.
A amostra foi constituída por 46 mulheres entre os e os 24 e os 39 anos, que se
encontravam entre o 2.º e o 6.º mês do pós-parto.
Foi aplicado um questionário de modo a avaliar o padrão de actividade física
das mulheres durante a gravidez e no pós-parto, e as determinantes para a prática de
actividade física.
A maioria das mulheres reportou a realização de algum tipo de actividade física
em todos os períodos, no entanto verifica-se um decréscimo no índice de actividade
física durante a gravidez, particularmente nas modalidades que envolvem maior
intensidade e impacto, como a corrida na rua e passadeira. A marcha na rua no entanto
ocupa a maior média de realização de actividade física no terceiro trimestre com 38% de
referências. A dor lombar foi o sintoma mais indicado pelas participantes ao longo de
todas a gestação.
As mulheres que eram activas antes da gravidez, reportaram a realização de
actividade física durante a gravidez, no entanto, as que não realizavam exercício antes
da gravidez, continuaram sem o realizar.
As grávidas e futuras mães, devem ser encorajadas a praticar actividade física
de modo a obter um estilo de vida mais saudável.
The present study aims to observe the pattern of physical activity in women before, during and after pregnancy, and the determinants that lead to practice as well as the principal determinants response for achievement physical activity. The sample comprised 46 women, between 24 and 39 years old, who were between 2 and 6 months postpartum. We administered a questionnaire to assess the pattern of physical activity, and respective factors. Most women reported some type of physical activity during both periods. Physical activity level decreased during pregnancy, particularly those of greater intensity and impact such as running in street and crosswalk. Outdoor walking in the street however occupies the highest average performance of physical activity in the third trimester with 38% of references. Low back pain was the most reported symptom of participants across the pregnancy period. Women who were active before pregnancy maintained activity during pregnancy, but those that did not perform exercise before pregnancy continued without realizing it. Pregnant women and future mothers should be encourage practicing physical activity in order to achieve a healthier lifestyle.
