Introdução/ enquadramento/ objetivos Muitos postos de trabalho tĂȘm postura de pĂ© mantida e as consequĂȘncias para o trabalhador e empregador sĂŁo frequentemente observadas. As equipas de saĂșde ocupacional sĂŁo frequentemente questionadas sobre a importĂąncia do uso de tapetes de descanso e/ou qual o modelo que se deveria escolher. Com este estudo, pretende-se conhecer quais os benefĂcios da utilização dos tapetes e respetiva evidĂȘncia. Metodologia Trata-se de uma RevisĂŁo BibliogrĂĄfica Integrativa/ Scoping Review, iniciada atravĂ©s de uma pesquisa realizada em abril de 2019 nas bases de dados âCINALH plus with full text, Medline with full text, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Nursing and Allied Health Collection: comprehensive, MedicLatina, Academic Search Ultimate, Science Direct, Web of Science, SCOPUS e RCAAPâ. ConteĂșdo A postura de pĂ© mantida associa-se genericamente a desconforto/ dor e fadiga, podendo causar alteraçÔes musculares nos membros inferiores e, secundariamente, patologia mĂșsculo-esquelĂ©tica (sobretudo na regiĂŁo lombar, perna e pĂ©). Os sintomas podem ser atenuados caso se consiga aliviar a pressĂŁo plantar. As tĂ©cnicas usadas sĂŁo o tapete de descanso, calçado com palmilhas amortecedoras, ortĂłteses ou plataformas inclinadas. Os tapetes poderĂŁo ser diferenciados em função da rigidez, espessura, compressĂŁo e material; bem como aditivos, revestimentos e forma geomĂ©trica, todos capazes de alterar a eficĂĄcia. Para alĂ©m disso, eles tambĂ©m podem ter outros efeitos interessantes (como atenuação do ruĂdo, vibraçÔes, desconforto tĂ©rmico, risco de queda dos trabalhadores e de objetos, proteção dos chĂŁos, retenção de detritos, distribuição de cargas eletrostĂĄticas ou restrição na propagação do fogo). DiscussĂŁo e ConclusĂ”es Os estudos publicados sobre este tema sĂŁo escassos e, para alĂ©m de, por vezes, tentarem quantificar parĂąmetros subjetivos, as amostras de trabalhadores envolvidas foram geralmente muito pequenas, pelo que as conclusĂ”es divulgadas na literatura nĂŁo sĂŁo robustas ou facilmente generalizĂĄveis a todos os funcionĂĄrios com postura de pĂ© mantida. Ainda assim, parece consensual entre os documentos selecionados que os tapetes atenuam os sintomas associados a esta questĂŁo, permitindo melhorias na produtividade, absentismo, satisfação e atĂ© sinistralidade. Contudo, nos poucos artigos que compararam o uso de tapetes versus rotação entre postura de pĂ© mantida e sentada ou intercalada com caminhadas suaves, estas Ășltimas parecem ser na realidade mais eficazes que os anteriores, ainda que estes sejam jĂĄ uma mais valia para a SaĂșde Ocupacional.
Introduction / objectives Many jobs have standing work position and the consequences are easily observed. Occupational health teams are often asked about the importance of using resting mats and/ or which model to choose. With this study, it is intended to know the benefits of using resting rugs and if your choice is the most effective to prevent occupational hazards. Methodology This is an Integrated Bibliographic Review, framed in a survey conducted in April 2019 in the databases âCINALH plus with full text, Medline with full text, Database of Summaries of Effects Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Nursing and Allied Health Collection: Comprehensive, MedicLatina, Final Academic Search, Direct Science, Web of Science, SCOPUS and RCAAP. Content The standing posture remained associatively to the discomfort/ fatigue, causing symptoms and musculoskeletal pathology (mainly in the lumbar region, leg and foot). Symptoms can be alleviated if you consider to decrease plantar pressure. The techniques used are the rest rugs, shoes with shock insoles, orthoses or sloping platforms. The carpets were differentiated according to the rigidity, thickness and material; as well as additives, coatings and geometric shape and all can interfere in the function of the mat. In addition, they may also have other interesting effects (such as noise attenuation, vibration, thermal discomfort, risk of falling workers and objects, floor protection, debris retention, electrostatic charge distribution or fire propagation restriction). Discussion and Conclusions The studies published on this topic are scarce and, in addition they are attempting to quantify subjective parameters; besides that, the samples of workers involved were generally very small, so the conclusions published in the literature are not robust or easily generalizable to all employees with standing posture. Nevertheless, it seems consensual among the documents selected that the rugs attenuate the symptoms, allowing improvements in productivity, absenteeism, satisfaction and even accidents However, in the few articles that compared the use of mats versus rotation between standing and sitting postures or interspersed with soft walks, the latter seem to be actually more effective than the previous ones, although these are already an added value for Occupational Health.
