This is an integrated literature review intended to get to know the Brazilian scientific production regarding the functional capacity of the elderly. BDENF, LILACS, MEDLINE and SciELO databases were consulted in the sampling period from January, 2001, to September, 2010. Eight articles were selected with nursing professionals (4) as the main authors of such publications. Publication year of the articles is between 2006 and 2010, with predomination of quantitative research focused on the multidimensionality of the elderly. Questionnaires and scales were used to assess the functional capacity of the elderly and constraining factors for its performance were also indicated. Scientific studies on the theme are incipient, which evidences the need for further research aiming to improve the quality of life of the elderly. |
