Item Plan de evaluación del riesgo de caídas con estimulación auditiva rítmica en el adulto mayor(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Centro de Posgrados, 2023-04-04) Moreano Cuadrado, Andrea Lissette; Espín Pastor, VictoriaDue to their limited capacities, older persons are particularly susceptible in their immediate local environment. A fall occurs in at least one third of persons over 65 every year. In many therapeutic settings, auditory stimulation brought on by music has been employed as a tool. The discipline of geriatrics has also employed this kind of stimulation. Via the coordination of movements, the rhythm and its variations affect elderly people's motor skills. improve Parkinson's gait, motor difficulties following an accident, and postural control in elderly persons. With rhythmic auditory stimulation in older persons, create a plan for fall risk assessment. With the help of 100 older adults who met the inclusion criteria and were 65 years of age or older, the development project's quantitative, field, descriptive, cross-sectional methodology allowed researchers to assess the very strong association between auditory stimulation rhythmic activity and the risk of falling. The TUG test has a very high Pearson correlation with the EAR Walk test, which results in a p-value of 0.00, indicating that this test is related to the risk of falling, just like the EAR Walk test with the Berg scale, which also has a p-value of 0.00. Concluding that there is a significant relationship between the results of rhythmic auditory stimulation tests and the likelihood that older people may fall.
