Introduction. Wounds affect the general population and negatively compromise the quality of life and generate biopsychosocial impacts. Objective. Analyze the association between functional capacity and quality of life in adults and elderly people with chronic wounds. Methods. Cross-sectional study with 135 people with chronic wounds registered in the primary health care services of a municipality in Minas Gerais, Brazil. For data collection carried
out from 2017 to 2018, the following were used: i) Cardiff Wound Impact Schedule, which was translated, culturally adapted and validated for the Brazilian Portuguese language; ii) Katz Index and iii) a sociodemographic questionnaire with information about the health/illness profile and injury characteristics. Results. There was a predominance
of female participants (59.3%), aged over 60 years (70.4%), and until 4 years of study (72.6%). In the Cardiff Wound Impact Schedule questionnaire, the domain with the lowest score was well-being (mean 45.6 ± 18.2). In the evaluation of functionality using the Katz Index, 30 (22.2%) people were considered dependent on bathing and 33 (24.4%) needed help to get around. There was a statistically significant association between the following independent variables of the Katz Index and Cardiff Wound Impact Schedule for “social life” and “bathing”, “social
life” and “dressing”, “social life” and “personal hygiene”, “social life” and “locomotion”, “social life” and “feeding”, “physical symptoms and daily life” and “dressing”, “well-being” and “continence”. Conclusions. Functional disability is associated with decreased quality of life in adults and elderly people with chronic wounds.
