Abstract

Leprosy sequelae interfere with physical, personal and socioeconomic life. Due to this complexity, it is difficult to objectively report the extent of the impact of leprosy; however, the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model classifies disease clinical conditions and their biopsychosocial consequences, facilitating a more realistic functional clinical diagnosis of leprosy, beyond the biomedical sphere. The objective of this study was to map the functional movement related disabilities of people with leprosy using the ICF. This is a cross-sectional study, with a sample composed of people with leprosy, recruited at the Aracaju Medical Specialty Center and University Hospital. For data collection, standardized and validated evaluations were used, representing each ICF domain. The analysis was descriptive, and the dysfunctions that were prevalent in 5% of the participants were selected as relevant. Twenty nine volunteers participated, 44.9 (± 13.72) years, 60% male. The most present functional disabilities were: 1) Structure of the body - "Structure of the skin areas - s810" with 78%; 2) Body function - "Tactile function - b265" and "Functions related to muscular strength - b730" with 100% presence; 3) Activity - "Lifting and loading objects - d430" and "Floor - d450" presented limitation in 100% of participants; 4) Participation "Recreation and Leisure - d920" was observed in 89% of participants; 5) Environmental impact - "Health services, systems and policies - e580" in 56% of the participants and in the personal factors the stigma with 100% presence. This study determined which biopsychosocial aspects are most relevant in people with leprosy and its results can be used as planning for the prevention and treatment of this disease.
