    “Habilidades motoras finas y gruesas y su relación con las funciones cognitivas en adultos mayores de la parroquia Picaihua”
    (2020-02-01) Aguilar Muñoz, Jessica Dayana; Ortiz Villalba, Paola Gabriela Lcda. Mg,
    The cognitive functions of the human being tend to deteriorate over time or due to the presence of pathological conditions, often affecting older adults. Thus, the objective of this research was to determine the relationship between fine and gross motor skills with cognitive functions in the elderly of Picaihua Tungurahua through physiotherapeutic intervention. Since, there is a higher prevalence in older adults due to their lifestyle and their high percentage of illiteracy. An intervention protocol was applied with a sample of 58 older adults, both men and women aged between 65 and ≥87, for 28 sessions, 3 times a week and each 40-45 minutes for 12 weeks. The evaluation was carried out at the beginning and at the end of the treatment through the Mini Mental State Examination. This treatment consisted of exercises of working memory, fine and gross motor skills, calculation, orientation and concentration, managing to increase from 1 to 5 points in the applied test according to the initial patients’ clinical conditions.

    “Abordaje fisioterapéutico en adultos mayores con deterioro cognitivo a través del método perfetti en el centro geriátrico del cantón Salcedo”
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Terapia Física, 2020-02-01) Sarabia Santamaría, Andrea Judith; Latta Sánchez, María AugustaLcda. Mg.
    The purpose of this research work is the physiotherapeutic application through the Perfetti Method in older adults with mild cognitive impairment of the Geriatric Center of Canton Salcedo. This study is descriptive, observational and cross-sectional: The assessment instruments used were: the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) that assesses the cognitive status of older adults and the Barthel Index (IB) to assess the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL). A population sample of 10 older adults, 8 men and 2 women, between 61 and 87 years of age, with a low level of education is acquired. The IB results are an average of 88 points out of 100, which represents a low dependency to execute the AVD. The initial assessment of MoCA in this population gives an average result of 20.1 which corresponds to a Slight Cognitive Impairment. A program of basic cognitive exercises of the Perfetti Method is designed, with eight sessions of therapeutic application, lasting approximately 30 minutes. Finally, a final reevaluation is performed with the help of the MoCA test and an average result of 25.7 is achieved by framing a normal degree of cognitive impairment. This means that through the learning of tasks that include motor behaviors, and memory, healthy aging can be maintained.

    “Relación entre las funciones cognitivas y habilidades motoras finas y gruesas en adultos mayores de la parroquia de Atahualpa y el Cantón Cevallos ”
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Terapia Física, 2020-02-01) Chalco Vargas, Gabriela Alexandra; Ortiz Villalba Lcda. Mg., Paola Gabriela
    The present work aimed to determine the relationship between cognitive functions and motor skills in older adults in Atahualpa and Cevallos - Tungurahua. The research belongs to the project “Neural plasticity and mechanisms of adaptation in the third age to preexisting pathological neurological conditions” from which the present study topic is derived, based on the macro project, with resolution number 0905-CU-P-2018. Older adults are a fundamental part of the society. It is essential to provide attention and security to this population and it is of social interest to study them because they are individuals who contributed to society for many years of their lives. The cognitive functions of them suffer significant deterioration over the years. In the research, a plan of physiotherapeutic treatment was applied that included physical and cognitive exercises of working memory, attention, concentration, perception and motor skills. In Atahualpa - Tungurahua 19 sessions were performed, 3 times per week with during 30 - 45 minutes per session for 9 weeks. In Cevallos – Tungurahua the period of intervention were 35 sessions, 4 times per week for 30 - 45 minutes per session for 12 weeks. According to the initial patients´ clinical conditions it was possible to incresa from 1 to 5 points in the Mini Mental State Examination.

    “Alteración de estrategias motoras asociadas a la marcha en el adulto mayor con deterioro cognitivo”
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-02-01) Valverde Espinosa, Anaís Paulina; Cobo Sevilla, Verónica de los Ángeles Lcda MSc.
    This research aims as objective to establish the relationship that exists between the motor strategies associated with walking in the elderly and cognitive impairment. The study was carried out through the data of the Project “PLATFORM OF TV REHABILITATION FOR OLDER ADULTS WHO PRESENT DISORDERS ASSOCIATED WITH DEMENTIA DISORDERS, BASED ON EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES” approved with Resolution 0352-CU-P-2017; of which the data of the cognitive deterioration score (mini-cognitive test) and the capture of the movement of the elderly in which the performance of the exercises was observed was used. The alterations in gait are of great impact in the elderly, due to the cognitive deterioration that considerably affects the motor functions. This generates a high interest in this research, since we can obtain results of how the motor strategies associated with the march, and relating to the cognitive deterioration are manifested. The digital tv-rehabilitation platform is used, with current technologies providing reliable data. Was taken as reference “Proposal for the evaluation of motor control for people with movement disorders” for the preparation of the performance observation sheet of the motor strategies associated with the march, which that an analysis of the avatar was realized in movement, applying to eight elderly adults which cognitive impairment of the macro project. There was applied the coefficient of Pearson’s correlation to demonstrate, the correlation of the level of cognitive deterioration of the elderly with the alterations of the motor strategies presented during the march

    “Correlación entre el deterioro cognitivo y movilidad articular de miembro inferior en adultos mayores que presentan trastornos asociados a la demencia.”
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Terapia Física, 2019-02-01) Osorio Logroño, Valeria Alexandra; Latta Sánchez, María Augusta Lcda. Mg.
    Currently there are few relevant data on the topic in Ecuador, so that research is important since it will investigate on the cognitive decline and joint mobility of the lower limb in older adults who have disorders associated with dementia, since at the time of performing dual task or walking exercises these are motor acts where there is the combined action between cognitive function and the musculo-skeletal system. The research according to the method of study is descriptive and observational. In addition it is quali-quantitative as used the mini-mental test and the statistical data that shows the platform are handled. The study was conducted in the Telerehabilitation and Analysis Laboratory of the human body of the Physical Therapy Course at the Faculty of Health Sciences. The research line of this study is epidemiology. And it is concluded that there is a correlation between cognitive impairment and joint mobility of the lower limb, since all the older adults of the research have cognitive impairment and do not reach the standard values, therefore they have lower joint range.
