Abstract
espanolDe forma tradicional e historica, las recomendaciones referidas al ejercicio fisico durante el embarazo han estado basadas en cuestiones culturales y sociales, mas que en evidencias cientificas. De tal forma, la informacion cientifica disponible a traves de guias de actuacion profesional ha sido escasa o practicamente inexistente. Ante esta situacion, y con el ejercicio fisico insertado en nuestra sociedad como un elemento basico de promocion de la salud, se hace importante disponer de unas guias practicas que permitan a los profesionales, especialmente los sanitarios, disponer de recomendaciones para el ejercicio fisico durante el embarazo basadas en solidas evidencias cientificas. El objetivo del presente estudio ha sido la elaboracion de las primeras guias espanolas de practica clinica para el ejercicio fisico durante el embarazo. El equipo de trabajo se formo producto de la solicitud de la Sociedad Espanola de Ginecologia y Obstetricia (SEGO) al grupo de investigacion Actividad Fisico-deportiva en Poblaciones Especificas (AFIPE), de la Universidad Politecnica de Madrid; para la elaboracion de las presentes guias estuvo formado por profesionales sanitarios, de las ciencias de la actividad fisica y del deporte y de la biblioteconomia y la documentacion. El proceso metodologico desarrollado estuvo basado en el utilizado en las guias canadienses para la actividad fisica durante el embarazo, recientemente publicadas. Los resultados obtenidos permitieron elaborar unas recomendaciones basicas para el ejercicio fisico durante la gestacion, asi como factores y situaciones que se deben tener en cuenta durante la practica fisica en mujeres gestantes. EnglishTraditionally and historically, recommendations regarding physical exercise during pregnancy have been based on cultural and social issues, rather than on scientific evidence. Thus, the scientific information available through professional guidelines has been scarce or virtually non-existent. In this situation, with the physical exercise inserted in our society as a basic element of health promotion, it is important to have practical guidelines for professionals, especially health practitioners, with recommendations for physical exercise during pregnancy based in solid scientific evidence. The objective of this study has been the elaboration of the first Spanish clinical practice guidelines for physical exercise during pregnancy. The work team was formed based on the request of the Spanish Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics (SEGO) to the research group Physical-sport activity in specific populations (AFIPE), of the Universidad Politecnica de Madrid for the elaboration of the present guidelines, the work team was composed by health professionals, the physical activity and sports sciences professionals and one professional from the library and documentation science. The methodological process developed was based on the Canadian guidelines for physical activity during pregnancy, recently published. The obtained results allowed to establish basic recommendations for physical exercise during pregnancy, as well as factors and situations that should be considered during exercise in pregnant women.
