| Abstract | |
Epilepsy is a serious and common neurological condition characterized by recurrent and spontaneous seizures in the brain. It can impair the cognitive, emotional and behavioral functions, the ability to work, social functioning, family stability and self-esteem of the patient, influencing their quality of life. Nowadays, health has been considering one of the most important benefits associated with physical activity. Thus, the physical education professional should acquire a new profile in the health, illness and care. So, this study aimed to evaluate psychological aspects (quality of life, self-esteem, resilience, stigma and depressive symptoms) in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy, compared with physical activity intensity practiced by them. We evaluated 80 patients with temporal lobe epilepsy associated with hippocampal sclerosis mesial outpatient epilepsy HC / UNICAMP (mean ± SD: 42 ± 10.0 years), 31 men divided into Active Group (61) and Group Not Active (19). The instruments used were: 1) IPAQ: degree of physical activity 2) WHOQOL-bref: quality of life 3) QOLIE-31: specific quality of life in epilepsy 4) Rosenberg self-esteem scale: self-esteem level 5) Resilience Scale : resilience level 6) Beck Depression: Depressive symptoms 7) stigma Scale of Epilepsy: perceived stigma. The results showed that the psychological aspects were evaluated: quality of life: Ga = 68.44, GNA = 56.06 (p = 0.002); quality of life in epilepsy: GA = 66.71, GNA = 49.98 (p = 0.000); stigma: GA = 42.60, GNA = 46.75 (p = 0.298); esteem GA = 6.68, GNA = 11.68 (p = 0.001); resilience: GA = 141.95, GNA = 129.0 (p = 0.298); depressive symptoms: GA = 6.31, GNA = 16.21 (p = 0.001), had higher scores when compared with non-active patients. This work could expand the level of information of these patients and healthcare professionals, as well as having a multiplier effect by disseminating and publishing the data (AU) | |
