Resumo

VIEIRA DA SILVA, Marco Antonio et al. Perceived barriers and coping strategies developed by patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to join to walking. Rev. salud pública [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.5, pp.537-543.  Epub 21-Set-2021. ISSN 0124-0064.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rsap.v22n5.54427.

Objective

To investigate the perceived barriers and coping strategies for the practice of walking identified among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) in the scope of the Unified Health System (SUS).

Methodology

A sample of 83 individuals with DM, SUS users, was asked to reflect on the obstacles that prevented them from walking, as well as to formulate coping plans to overcome them. The obstacles raised and plans developed were categorized for similarity and subjected to frequency analysis.

Results

The main obstacle reported was the feeling of "dismay" (36.1%). The most frequent coping plan to overcome the barriers found was 'social support from family members', 'neighbors' and 'friends'.

Conclusion

The results made it possible to know the difficulties and potential of the subjects related to self-care for DM regarding the practice of walking, knowledge that can help the multidisciplinary teams of the SUS.
