Impacto das estratégias de coping no processo terapêutico da Pessoa com Deficiência Física: revisão integrativa. 2022. 26f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Fisioterapia), Departamento de Fisioterapia, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2022.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/50422It is estimated that about 15% of the world's population has some kind of disability, representing more than one billion people. In Brazil, about 24% of the country's population are counted as People with Disabilities (PCD). Such a high prevalence should imply programs aimed at the care of this public with the approach to health and public policies committed to valuing the personal demands, opinions and needs of this population. Among the tools that have been used to empower patients in the therapeutic process itself, coping is an alternative to be considered. In this perspective, the objective of this study is to conduct an integrative review of the literature seeking to identify what is currently known about the impact of the use of coping strategies on the therapeutic process of People with Physical Disabilities. The search was conducted in three databases (SciELO, LILACS and MEDLINE) and included research conducted in the last ten years. The studies pointed to the importance of coping strategies during the treatment of People with Physical Disabilities, emphasizing that in the immediate period to injury/trauma that caused disability, coping strategies focused on emotional reactions are important, however over time, these strategies should give way to coping focused on problem solving, the latter presenting good results regarding the control of stress and depression, thus improving the patient's treatment support. It is evident the urgent need to educate professionals, family members and patients about the use of coping strategies to promote comprehensive health care, which sees the individual as a biopsychosocial being.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Estratégias de copingDeficiência físicaTratamentobachelorThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE::FISIOTERAPIA E TERAPIA OCUPACIONAL
