Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The work of an interdisciplinary team with an intergenerational intervention, promote greater benefits in community elderly mobility than a conventional intervention (unidisciplinary and unigeracional). So expect to find improvement in postural control, flexibility and gait of these seniors through performance measurement in the Short Physical Performance Battery test and Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test, from the realization of a range of at least 5% in pre and post intervention measurements.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcomes will be measurement of manual seizure of power by the dynamometer Manual, flexibility test through the Banco de Wells.
