Resumen
CARVALHO, Ana Maria Dos Santos; PEREIRA, Claúdia Sofia Clemente; RIBEIRO, Catarina y MARQUES, Goreti. Postural education in school aged children: integrative literature review. RPER [online]. 2020, vol.3, suppl.2, pp.61-67. Epub 05-Ene-2022. ISSN 2184-965X. https://doi.org/10.33194/rper.2020.v3.n2.9.5812.
Background:
Postural education is essential to promote proper body posture and prevent the adoption of incorrect postures, which can result in pain and musculoskeletal damage (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). The implementation of school-level programs has a strong influence on children's health and quality of life (6, 7).
Objective:
To analyze the existing evidence concerning postural education programs implemented at school level.
Methodology:
Through an integrative literature review, the PEO methodology (participants, exposure and results) was used. The data collection was conducted in April 2020 in the CINAHL and PubMed databases.
Results:
The analysis of the articles included allowed us to identify that postural education programs have benefits in terms of knowledge, static and dynamic postural parameters, backpack weight reduction, musculoskeletal pain level and shoulder misalignment.
Conclusion:
The evidence shows that the implementation of postural education programs, at school level, has positive results in promoting children's health.
