Abstract

O nascimento de uma criança com paralisia cerebral é um enorme desafio para os pais que tem um impacto direto sobre a sua qualidade de vida. Portanto, acreditamos que é importante prestar atenção a este tópico. Para tanto, realizamos pesquisas sobre a qualidade de vida de pais de crianças com paralisia cerebral em 2018. Para atingir nosso objetivo, aplicamos uma estratégia de pesquisa quantitativa e utilizamos uma ferramenta de pesquisa válida, ou seja, um questionário padronizado de qualidade de vida - Family Quality of Life Scale ("FQOL"). A pontuação média alcançada pelos entrevistados foi de 94,0918 pontos, o que indica uma maior qualidade de vida nos entrevistados do que o esperado. A avaliação da pontuação média para cada dimensão da escala mostrou que os entrevistados obtiveram menor pontuação na dimensão "bem-estar emocional" (13.2551 pontos) e "Apoio Social" (15.6429 pontos). A pesquisa confirmou ainda que houve diferenças estatisticamente significantes na qualidade de vida dos entrevistados em função de sua idade (t = -2,341, p = 0,021), estado civil (F = 3,476, p = 0,019) e região territorial (χ2 = 15,39, p = 0,031). Foi confirmada uma relação estatisticamente significativa entre a qualidade de vida dos entrevistados e a idade da criança com paralisia cerebral (0,288 **, p = 0,004). Apesar de uma pontuação relativamente alta indicando uma maior qualidade de vida nos entrevistados, a pesquisa identificou duas áreas em que pais de crianças com paralisia cerebral apresentaram uma qualidade de vida menor, a saber, seu bem-estar emocional e apoio social.
