Introdução: A promoção da saúde dos idosos advém de estratégias para melhorar a qualidade de vida e retardar o processo de envelhecimento, sendo necessária a promoção de diferentes capacidades. É essencial promover e estimular a capacidade física dos idosos, ajudando-os a manter a sua autonomia.
Objetivo: Mapear a evidência disponível para identificar os jogos/exercícios para a promoção da capacidade física e da capacidade cognitiva da pessoa idosa.
Métodos: Scoping Review (revisão abrangente) da literatura, com recurso às bases de dados: MEDLINE (via PubMed), CINHAL (via EBSCO) e WEB OF SCIENCE. RESULTADOS: Incluídos 13 artigos. Os jogos que promovem a capacidade física e cognitiva dos idosos, podem ser exergames, isto é, jogos que envolvem tecnologias como Nintendo Wii Fit ou Xbox que promovem especificamente a capacidade física e cognitiva, ou jogos tradicionais, jogos que não envolvem tecnologias como subir e descer escadas que maioritariamente promovem a capacidade física.
Discussão: Os exergames apresentam melhorias mais significativas que os jogos tradicionais e é comum haver um treino conjunto da capacidade física e cognitiva dos idosos.
Conclusões: Os exergames demonstram eficácia na promoção da capacidade física e cognitiva dos idosos, sendo reconhecidos como um recurso tecnológico importante neste contexto.
