Item “Balón isométrico de cuádriceps: un prototipo de dispositivo para fortalecimiento muscular”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Pino Montes, Christian Patricio; Latta Sánchez Lcda. Mg., María AugustaOsteoarthritis or knee osteoarthritis commonly known is a pathology of degenerative origin that afflicts 3.6% of the population worldwide, characterized by pain, edema in the joint and weakness of the quadriceps which prevents adequate mobility in patients. More often in the knee, there are several risk factors that favour its appearance as age, race, sex, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, overweight and occurs more frequently in female patients from 50 years. There are several treatment protocols that have been promoted by different authors, from pharmacological treatments to multicomponent treatments that include the use of strength exercises (isometric and isokinetic), balance and dynamic exercises; among which the use of isometric exercises in the first phase and isokinetic exercises in the second phase highlight, which allows a better compression in the joint. The period of treatment when using this protocol goes from 2 weeks and can be used in the home environment with periodic monitoring by the physiotherapist. To this end, an isometric quadriceps balloon has been created to help in the isometric exercises giving a better reach to the potential to help patients with this pathologyItem “Efectividad de la intervención fisioterapéutica en la incontinencia urinaria en mujeres de la tercera edad de la parroquia de Santa Rosa - Apatug”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Pérez Peñafiel, Carolina Elizabeth; Ortiz Villalba, Paola Gabriela Lcda. MgUrinary incontinence is the lost of involuntary urine and it has major prevalence in elderly people and also in females, due that women’s are more prone to suffer from pelvic floor dysfunction(PFD) during either pregnancy, births, habits and lifestyle, the main goal of the present investigation is to determine the effects of the physiotherapeutic intervention in the urinary incontinence of the elderly women of the Santa Rosa parish- Apatug. This research is a type of bibliography-documental, descriptive- explanatory and quantitative, that same that had 14 participants, who assisted to 10 sessions being this the first to perform the initial evaluation and the last and final evaluation, in witch in the questionnaire ICIQ-SF was use. While in the 8 remaining sessions hypopresives and Kegel exercises were applied. Subsequence implementation of the application protocol and performing the final evaluation it concludes that indeed the rate of IU was reduced with a significance of 0.007 connecting the first and final evaluation.Item “Deformidades del pie por el uso prolongado de zapatos de taco en las secretarias de la Universidad Técnica de Ambato”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Castillo Cevallos, Helen Guadalupe; Cobo Sevilla, Verónica de los ÁngelesLcda MSc.The objective of this project was to identify through a research the foot deformities caused by the prolonged use of high-heeled shoes, for which, the secretaries of the Technical University of Ambato were chosen as subjects of study, including those who have not had history of traumatic injuries in the ankle, want to collaborate and have time for data collection and podoscopic evaluation, wearing the right clothes for it; The project was carried out with 14 secretaries who fit on these criteria. For the collection of data, there was an observation form prepared previously, in which sociodemographic data such as age, weight, height and body mass index were registered; information on the two types of footwear most used by secretaries (footwear type 1 and type 2) detailing the time of use in years, days and hours a week, as well as, model, material and type of heel and toe; the results of the goniometric measurement in dorsiflexion, plantiflexion, inversion and eversion; and finally, the data obtained from the podoscopic evaluation registering mainly the type of footprint, pressure points, foot type and callosities. The results showed a decrease in the normal ranges of movement in dorsiflexion, eversion and inversion of the foot, the inversion being the most affected, the research showed a marked increase in the plantiflexion with marked calluses in the heel and forefoot, besides a detachment of the toes for the floor eliminating the fingerprint.Item “Detección y análisis de trastornos musculoesqueléticos en adultas mayores usuarias de Chumbi”.(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Herrera Yánez, Mónica Lucia; Latta Sánchez, María Augusta Lcda. Mg.Currently there is no relevant data on the subject in Ecuador, for this reason the research is important for a future study, since it will be investigated on the musculoskeletal disorders that are caused by the postural alterations and the activation of the musculature that make up the band Abdominal in older women users of chumbi, since when performing daily activities in the field this population requires using the musculature of the spine to perform activities that require a lot of muscular effort. The research according to the study method is descriptive and observational, it is also quantitative since the postural test was used and statistical data were handled that the software of the team assesses the muscular activity. The study was carried out in two rural parishes of the Ambato canton, such as Macasto and Apatug. The research line of this study is epidemiology. It is concluded that older women who are users of chumbi have greater postural alteration at the level of the spine and hip, musculoskeletal disorders at the same level of the alteration and muscle activity is decreased in relation to older women who are not users of chumbi.Item “Velocidad de la marcha como indicador de fragilidad en adultos mayores de 65 a 80 años del centro gerontológico vida a los años de la ciudad de Ambato”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Proaño Poveda, María José; Latta Sánchez, María AugustaLcda. Mg.Is important to recognizing a frail older adult lies in the possibility of designing prevention measures with the aim of decreasing the short and long term morbidity and mortality rates in gerontological centers, so recent studies suggest that the speed of walking has a close correlation with this syndrome and adverse events in the future constituting it as a diagnostic method not only practical but also reproducible itself that distinguishes a frail older adult. The research according to the study method is of a transversal and descriptive type. Also quantitative since the Short Physical Performance Battery test (SPPB) is used to obtain the statistical data and the cut-off point of the speed of the walk. The study was conducted at the Gerontological Center Life to the Years in Ambato city. The line of research is epidemiology and public health. It is concluded that a walking speed less than 0.72 m / s is an indicator of frailty in older adults of the aforementioned gerontological center.Item “Efectividad de la intervención fisioterapéutica en la capacidad pulmonar y patrones respiratorios en los adultos mayores de la parroquia Santa Rosa-Apatug”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Patiño Albarracín, José Emanuel; Espín Pastor, Victoria Estefanía Lcda. Mg.The main objective of this research was to determine the effects of the physiotherapeutic intervention on pulmonary capacity and respiratory patterns in the elderly of Santa Rosa-Apatug parish. An intervention plan was used in 25 older adults. With an average age of 75.44 years. Of which 16 were women. The treatment was based on Baduanjin exercises and postural re-education. It lasted 10 sessions, 1 session per week, with 30 minutes duration. Lung capacity and respiratory patterns were evaluated with spirometry. It was applied before and after the intervention. Saturation, blood pressure, and heart rate were also assessed before and after each session. Through a doctor. The risk factors to which the population was exposed were measured. With the application of a simple questionnaire. No statistically significant changes were recorded in terms of lung capacity, saturation, blood pressure, systolic and diastolic heart rates. Because the value of P was not less than 0.05. On the other hand, clinical changes were obtained in terms of respiratory patterns. Since in the initial evaluation the total of the participants had abnormal respiratory patterns. And in the final evaluation 72% obtained a normal respiratory pattern. It is also concluded that the sample was subject to risk factors throughout the investigation such as altitude, exposure to biomass, smoking, use of fertilizers, and a genetic predisposition.Item “Relación de la capacidad funcional de miembros inferiores y el aparecimiento de lesiones en los deportistas de la Universidad Técnica de Ambato”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Recalde Erazo, Melany Thifany; Córdova Velasco, Luís Ernesto Dr. Esp.Many of the debates are oriented towards knowing the functional capacity of lower members of athletes and that this in turn can predict the suffering of injuries in them and the return to sports. Thus, the present research work was carried out with the purpose of establishing a relationship between the functional capacity of lower limbs and the appearance of injuries in athletes of the Technical University of Ambato. This population was taken due to the existence of a variety of sports such as: crossfit, basketball, soccer, climbing, cycling, calisthenics, among others. This is an observational study with a quantitative and qualitative approach, as well as being transversal, explanatory, descriptive, bibliographic and field, in which 55 athletes from different disciplines that met the inclusion criteria were included. Once the population to be investigated was determined, useful tools were used for the development of this study, such as the Lower Extremity Advanced Sports Assessment (VDAEI) test by Christie Powell, which has been a battery of tests for lower limbs that includes squats. , jumps, careers and balance, a data collection sheet was also used, detailing personal background and informed consent. At the end of the investigation, some important conclusions were established.Item “Alteraciones posturales por sobrecarga de peso en el cuidador de personas con discapacidad que acuden a las fundaciones de la ciudad de pelileo”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Villegas Vargas, Mayra Johanna; Moscoso Córdova, Grace Verónica Lcda. Mg.Caregivers of dependent persons with disabilities are exposed to several health problems, especially those related to alterations in their posture. It is for this reason that the present study was conducted with the objective of determining postural alterations due to weight overload in the caregiver of people with disabilities who attend the foundations of the city of Pelileo. The research had a qualitative and quantitative approach, a type of descriptive, cross-sectional and exploratory research. It was carried out with a population of 24 caregivers who attended the Corazon de María, San Pedro de Pelileo and San José de Huambaló foundations. The instruments used for the collection of the data were: an initial survey, the Zarit scale (Caregiver Overload Scale), an observation sheet and a postural test through software called PostureScreen Mobile. Once the results of the data were obtained, it was very noticeable that all of the caregivers were female and subsequently, it was concluded that the most significant risk factors were the caregiver's age, the poor postures they adopt and the number of times that they carried out mobilizations or transfers of the dependent people throughout the day, in addition to the fact that the postural alterations in relation to the most altered anatomical segments were in the head: advanced (88%), in the shoulders: asymmetry (92%), in the column vertebral: hypercifosis (38%), hyperlordosis (33%) and postural scoliosis (92%) and in the pelvis: anteversion (54%) and asymmetry (67%). The structures where they felt most discomfort or pain were primarily in the spine, the shoulders and the knees.Item “Caracterización postural en deportistas de olimpiadas especiales Tungurahua”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Jácome Shulca, Emily Johanna; Moscoso Córdova, Grace VerónicaLcda. Mg.Sport is an element of social insertion and personal development, which helps to improve the quality of life of all people since this will contribute to the development of equality and social insertion, so that sports have become a facilitator process at national and international levels, encompassing all sports modalities that suit people with special abilities, making some adaptations and/or modifications in posture or with the structure of the sport that allows its practice without relevant adaptations, reason for which the present investigation is carried out with the objective of determining the postural characterization of athletes of Special Olympics Tungurahua. As instruments of collecting data, a data collection card was used to collect sociodemographic and anthropometric characteristics such as height and weight for the calculation of body mass index. In addition, the Posture Screen Mobile program was used to identify the postural characteristics of the athletes through photographs With the development of the research it was concluded that permanent training is essential for the development of sports and competition skills, since it is determined that the body mass index (BMI) and postures are not a limitation when competing, in order to participate in the Special Olympics the only requirement is to have intellectual disability, cognitive delay, have significant learning, or vocational problems that have been identified by a profesionalItem “Caracterización postural en personas con discapacidad en el cantón Pelileo”(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-09-01) Sánchez Martínez, Sofía Elena; Moscoso Córdova, Grace Verónica Lcda. MgDisability is a human condition that is due to several factors. This is the reason to carry out this project in order to analyze the postural characteristics and describe the variations in the body mass index of people with disabilities. The research carried out is the type of cross-sectional descriptive, and the documentary application and the field in which 36 people with disabilities participated who attend the day centers of attention to the disability in the Pelileo canton. For data collection you can see a sociodemographic sheet, BMI, photogrammetry using the PostureScreen Mobile application and finally observational postural test. The term of the investigation concludes that the canton there are more people with disabilities of male sex, the ranges of body mass index are normal and with tendency to overweight.
