Aging in a gradual reduction in respiratory muscle strength and functional capacity occurs, in this perspective, this study aims to identify the relationship between respiratory muscle strength and function in elderly residents of long-stay institutions. This is a study of the analytical type with cross design and quantitative approach, taking as a research field three institutions for the aged in the cities of Vitória da Conquista and Jequie/BA with a sample of 62 elderly. The survey instrument consisted of five (5) parts: cognitive assessment, sociodemographic information, health status, respiratory muscle strength (MIP and MEP) and functional capacity (basic and instrumental activities of daily living). Data were analyzed using descriptive and application of the Spearman correlation coefficient statistical analysis. It was found that there was statistically significant difference between MEP and instrumental activities of daily living (p=0.000). The results of this study suggest that the reduced values of MEP are associated with impairment of instrumental activities of daily living.Downloads
