RESUMEN
Fundamentos Relacionar la dinamometría con diversos parámetros antropométricos en adultos mayores (AM) autovalentes chilenos. Métodos:
Estudio de corte transversal (n=500 AM), atendidos en centros de salud familiar. La funcionalidad se evaluó mediante el Examen Funcional Adulto Mayor (EFAM-Chile). Las medidas antropométricas evaluadas fueron peso, talla, circunferencia brazo, pliegue tricipital y dinamometría.Resultados:
Hubo un predominio de mujeres (61,2%). El 61,3% presentaba valores de dinamometría inferiores a los puntos de corte utilizados en Chile. Se encontró en el modelo de regresión logística que el tener un IMC <=23,5 Kg/Mt2, ser >=75 años, tener un pliegue tricipitalABSTRACT
Background:
To relate the dynamometers to diverse parameters anthropometric in Chilean elderly (AM) self sufficient Adult.Methods:
Cross section study (n=500 AM), who were recruited in family health centers. The functionality was assessed using criteria Elderly Functional Exam (EFAM-Chile). The anthropometric measures evaluated were; weight, height, arm circumference, triceps skinfold and dynamometres.Results:
Was a predominance of women (61.2%). The 61.3% of those tested had present dynamometry values below the cutoffs used in Chile. It was found in the logistic regression model that having a IMC<= 23.5 Kg/Mt2, be <75 years have a triceps skinfold
