Resumo: |
In the process of human aging, the modifications are inherent to the phases of life and with respect to female aging, climacteric and consequently menopause, constitutes an event that accentuates their perception and / or self-perception. Coronary heart disease can be one of the consequences of the climacteric, compromising the quality of life of women who are at this stage. Epidemiology has shown that the heart attack kill both the women and the men and kill the women more in the climacteric period. Physical symptoms, emotional problems or social support problems may present themselves and negatively impact a daily life marked by the accumulation of roles (professionals, marriages, caregivers). The recognition of this complexity of events coupled with the fact that my professional activity as a social worker is focused on attending coronary climacteric women, answered for the interest in researching how issues inherent to female aging (focusing on the climacteric and its developments) impact the quality of life and also how social supports can contribute to the greater well-being of these women. The general objective that guided my research was therefore to study the relationship between social support and its impact on the quality of life of coronary climacteric women treated at the Dante Pazzanese Institute of Cardiology (IDPC / SUS). Among the specific objectives, the following should be highlighted: demographic and socioeconomic profiles, identify their self-perception of quality of life; as well as their social support and analyze how these variables are articulated. For that, I carried out a literature review pertinent to this topic based on data collected in a field survey performed with 52 women attending the IDPC. The results of this discussion allowed me not only to ratify my initial hypothesis that a good social support positively impacts the women‘s quality of life in this stage, but also to point out a propositional way to potentiate social actions as a fundamental part of a project to improve health for them |
