Resumen

Introducción: El mundo se enfrenta actualmente a una pandemia que ha cambiado el estilo de vida de la población en general y ha generado consecuencias para la economía y la salud pública, dada la potencial propagación del patógeno, SARS-CoV-2, causante de la enfermedad COVID-19. Las personas mayores de 60 años fueron identificadas como uno de los grupos más vulnerables para desarrollar la forma severa de la enfermedad. El objetivo de este estudio fue verificar en la literatura los impactos de la pandemia COVID-19 en las personas mayores y las estrategias de rehabilitación que se han adoptado en este período. Metodología: Se trata de una revisión integradora que utilizó artículos indexados en las bases de datos Medline, PubMed y Scielo publicados entre los años 2020 y 2021 en inglés, portugués y español. Resultados: La pandemia de COVID-19 y el aislamiento social trajeron algunos problemas de salud a los ancianos. Los artículos analizados en esta revisión enumeraron algunos de estos trastornos, que incluyen la función motora deteriorada, el deterioro en el desempeño de las actividades de la vida diaria, la debilidad adquirida en la UCI y el empeoramiento de la fragilidad. Consideraciones Finales: La salud de las personas mayores en el escenario actual demanda una atención más específica que busca enfatizar no solo la recuperación, sino también la prevención de estos problemas de salud. Además, las estrategias para lograr estos objetivos deben estudiarse más a fondo con el fin de encontrar métodos para brindar una atención de calidad a esta población durante y después de una pandemia.
