Correlação entre incapacidade, dor – Roland Morris, e capacidade funcional – SF-36 em indivíduos com dor lombar crônica não específica
Resumo
A dor lombar crônica é uma disfunção músculo-esquelética comum em todo o mundo, causando limitação funcional e gerando prejuízos na qualidade de vida de indivíduos. Objetivando-se correlacionar a incapacidade e a escala qualitativa de dor do questionário Roland-Morris Brasil, e a escala qualitativa de dor e o constructo “capacidade funcional” do questionário SF-36 Brasil, realizou-se esta pesquisa quantitativa descritiva, com 30 indivíduos com dor lombar crônica não específica. Observou-se correlação significativa entre incapacidade (Roland-Morris) e escala qualitativa de dor (Roland-Morris); entre a escala qualitativa de dor (Roland-Morris) e “dor” (SF-36); “capacidade funcional” (SF-36) e “dor” (SF-36) e também entre a escala qualitativa de dor (Roland-Morris) com o constructo “capacidade funcional” (SF-36). Não houve correlação significativa entre incapacidade (Roland-Morris) e “dor” (SF-36). Foi observada correlação significativa entre “capacidade funcional” (SF-36) e incapacidade (Roland-Morris). Houve correlação significativa entre “capacidade funcional” avaliado pelo questionário SF-36, e entre dor - SF-36 com escala qualitativa de dor - Roland Morris. Esses achados indicam que a intensidade da dor pode contribuir para a diminuição da “capacidade” funcional, mas, se avaliada isoladamente, não é um determinante para a diminuição da qualidade de vida desse indivíduo.

ABSTRACT
The chronic lumbar pain is a common muscle-skeletal dysfunction globally causing functional limitation, with damages in the individuals' quality of life. Being aimed at to correlate the incapacity and the qualitative scale of pain of the questionnaire Roland-Morris Brazil, and the qualitative scale of pain and the constructo "functional capacity" of the questionnaire SF-36 Brazil, this descriptive quantitative research was become fulfilled, with 30 individuals with non specific chronic lumbar pain. Significant correlation was observed between incapacity (Roland-Morris) and qualitative scale of pain (Roland-Morris); between the qualitative scale of pain (Roland-Morris) and "pain" (SF-36); "functional capacity" (SF-36) and "pain" (SF-36) and also between the qualitative scale of pain (Roland-Morris) with the constructo "functional capacity" (SF-36). There was not significant correlation between incapacity (Roland-Morris) and "pain" (SF-36). A strong significant correlation was observed between "functional capacity" (SF-36) and incapacity (Roland-Morris). In this study met significant correlation between "functional capacity" evaluated by the questionnaire SF-36, and between pain - SF-36 with qualitative scale of pain -Roland Morris. These findings indicate that the intensity of the pain can contribute for the reduction of the “functional capacity”, but, if evaluated separately, is not a determinative one for the reduction of the quality of life of this individual.
Key-Words: low back pain, disability, quality of life.
