Abstract(s)
O conceito de qualidade de vida, segundo a Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), baseia-se na “percepção do indivíduo acerca de sua posição na vida, de acordo com o contexto cultural e os sistemas de valores nos quais vive e em relação a seus objectivos, expectativas, padrões e preocupações” (The WHOQOL Group, 1995). Este estudo teve como objectivos conhecer a qualidade de vida de um paciente com afasia e analisar o impacto da afasia na qualidade de vida dos familiares que coabitam com o paciente. Para tal, foi aplicado ao paciente com afasia e aos seus pais, o questionário WHOQOL-bref, criado pelo Grupo de Qualidade de Vida da OMS, que corresponde à versão abreviada do WHOQOL-100. As conclusões principais apontam para uma qualidade de vida classificada, por parte do paciente, como “nem boa, nem má” e para uma qualidade de vida abaixo da média esperada, para os familiares que coabitam com o paciente, o que poderá ser, ou não, reflexo da condição em que este se encontra.

The aims of this study are understand the quality of life of a patient with aphasia and analyze the impact of aphasia on quality of life of family members who live with the patient. To this end, has been applied to a patient with aphasia and their parents, the WHOQOL-bref, created by the Group of the WHO Quality of Life, which is the abbreviated version of WHOQOL-100. The main conclusions point to a quality of life rated by the patient, as “neither good nor bad” and a quality of life below the average for family members who live with the patient, which may, or not a reflection of the condition in which it lies.
