![]() ![]() Em geral, os participantes demonstraram boa viabilidade com o formato das avaliações.ĬONCLUSÃO: Em idosos saudáveis e com alta escolaridade, a videoconferência baseada na web é uma alternativa viável para determinar o desempenho funcional e medidas cognitivas. Além disso, nossa análise mostrou níveis mistos de confiabilidade entre as medidas, enquanto o MoCA, Teste de Trilhas B e as fases Interferência e Leitura do Stroop Test tiveram excelente CCI (variando de 0,79 a 0,91) e as outras avaliações cognitivas com CCI ruim a moderado (variando de 0,42 a 0,58). RESULTADOS: Todas as medidas de desempenho funcional demonstraram excelente confiabilidade intra-avaliador. A viabilidade da avaliação foi examinada com o uso de um questionário padronizado de 14 itens. A confiabilidade das medidas foi analisada pelo Coeficiente de Correlação Intraclasse (CCI), teste t pareado ou análise de Wilcoxon e Bland-Altman. ![]() Um avaliador independente e experiente entregou, em tempo real, avaliações funcionais (Chair Rise Test - CRT, Chair Stand Test, Sitting and Rising Test - SRT) e cognitivas (MoCA, Teste de Trilhas A e B, Stroop Test e Fluência Verbal) por meio da Plataforma Google Meet em dois dias não consecutivos. METODOLOGIA: Trinta idosos, que vivem de forma independente na comunidade (independente fisicamente e sem sinais de comprometimento cognitivo) participaram do estudo. OBJETIVO: Nosso objetivo foi determinar a viabilidade e confiabilidade de medidas funcionais e cognitivas por meio de uma videoconferência baseada na web entre idosos no contexto da pandemia de COVID-19. Reliability physical performance cognitive aging older adults COVID-19. Functional measures showed excellent reliability indexes, whereas cognitive data should be interpreted carefully, since the reliability varied from poor to moderate. ![]() In general, the participants reported good feasibility for the assessment format.ĬONCLUSION: In healthy and highly educated older adults, videoconferencing is a feasible method of determining functional and cognitive performance. Our analysis also showed mixed levels of reliability across measures, including good ICC (ranging from 0.79 – 0.91) for the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, part B of the Trail Making Test, and the congruent and neutral trials in the Stroop test, but poor-to-moderate ICC (ranging from 0.42 – 0.58) for the other cognitive assessments. ![]() RESULTS: All functional performance measures showed excellent intra-rater reliability, with ICCs from 0.90 (95%CI 0.78 – 0.95) for the sitting and rising test to 0.98 (95%CI 0.96 – 0.99) for the chair rise test. The feasibility of the assessment was investigated using a standardized 14-item questionnaire. The reliability of the measures was analyzed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), a paired t-test, or Wilcoxon and Bland-Altman analysis. An independent and experienced researcher assessed functional (chair rise test, chair stand test, sitting and rising test) and cognitive (Montreal Cognitive Assessment, parts A and B of the Trail Making Test, the Stroop test, the verbal fluency test) performance in real-time on the Google Meet platform on 2 non-consecutive days. METHODS: Thirty community-dwelling older adults (86.70% women) with a mean age of 69.77 (SD = 6.60) years who were physically independent and had no signs of cognitive impairment were included in the sample. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine the feasibility and reliability of videoconference assessment of functional and cognitive status among older adults in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. ![]()
