Introduction: Human aging is a natural, gradual, and irreversible process that involves progressive changes in the structure and functioning of the body. This process is driven by a combination of genetic and environmental factors and manifests at various levels, including cellular, structural, functional, and psychological. From the age of 60 onward, these changes become more noticeable, directly affecting the quality of life of older adults. Currently, more than 7% of the global population is over 65 years old, and in developed countries, this proportion can reach up to 15%. The growing number of elderly individuals leads to higher demand for medical services, mostly related to chronic illnesses and non-fatal injuries, resulting in increased healthcare costs and presenting significant challenges for public policies aimed at their care and wellbeing Objective: To determine the effects of a training program on dynamic balance through entertainment platforms in older adults. Method: The present study is a prospective longitudinal cohort analytical study under a quantitative approach, since the level of dynamic balance presented by older adults will be initially evaluated through the Tinetti test, functional reach test, and Timed Up and Go test, in order to develop the proposed training plan in the older adults of Guaytacama. Then, the effects of the plan will be evaluated to identify clinically and statistically the changes in the level of dynamic balance of the older adults. Results: A training plan was structured in four stages. First, intervention protocols were approved and the selection of participants was approved by inclusion and exclusion criteria. Second, dynamic balance evaluations were carried out by means of scales and tests. Third; with the results of the tests and literature, the training plan was structured. Fourth; the plan was applied for a duration of four weeks with a frequency of application of three times per week with a duration of 20 - 25 minutes. Conclusion: The results obtained through the application of the training plan are favorable for older adults in the reeducation of dynamic balance, because they perform better in daily life activities.

The function of the upper limbs is an important element in the independence of older adults. As the population ages, mobility and strength problems appear in these limbs that are affected in the performance of daily activities and therefore affect their quality of life. The present research studies the implementation of new technological tools such as virtual reality to improve strength and mobility in the elderly population. The use of virtual reality allows for an immersive and personalized experience for each senior which accelerates recovery and increases their engagement in the rehabilitation process. It can help reduce the sensation of pain by providing a distracting factor, which allows you to take your attention away from the pain and work in a more appropriate manner. Objective: To develop a virtual reality training program to improve upper limb function in the elderly. Method: A training program with virtual reality is put into practice in a population of 40 older adults of the Gerontological day center “Mis Mejores Años con dignidad” of the Management of social and economic development of the GADM of Tena, where daily sessions of 40 minutes per user were established, obtaining significant improvements in the functionality and strength in the upper limbs. Two tests were used for the initial and final evaluation, the DASHe test to measure the functionality of the upper limbs and the ARM CURL TEST to evaluate strength, showing significant and relevant progress in the capabilities of older adults, providing them with an accessible and effective alternative. Results: Conclusions: Virtual reality is presented as an innovative option in the rehabilitation of upper limbs in older adults, by presenting real scenarios that help to improve autonomy, confidence and quality of life, which favors the practice of activities of daily life.

Plantar fasciitis is a common inflammatory and degenerative pathology in military personnel, associated with prolonged standing, long marches, and carrying heavy loads. It represents a significant cause of decreased physical performance and quality of life. Early diagnosis can reduce the functional impact and costs associated with its treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the type of gait and its relationship with podoscopy and physical examination of the foot in military personnel with plantar fasciitis. This study conducted a correlational study of 40 military personnel with foot pain treated at the Agrucomge Type "B" Health Center at the Rumiñahui Military Fort in Quito, Pichincha province, from June to August 2024. These patients were selected using non-probability convenience sampling and applied inclusion and exclusion criteria. A gait type assessment was performed to categorize military personnel based on the Helbing Line and compare it with the foot type presented by military personnel based on the physical examination with the height of the scaphoid bone and the plantar arch index (PAI). The results revealed a high frequency of flat feet and pronated gait in military personnel, followed by normal feet with pronated gait, with no association between gait type and foot type in plantar fasciitis (p=>0.05). The conclusion is that plantar fasciitis is a multifactorial pathology. The physical examination could be complemented with podoscopy to detect structural and biomechanical foot abnormalities that would aid clinical evaluation, especially in military personnel.

Scoliosis refers to a complex deformity of the spine in three planes. It is diagnosed by measuring the angle of curvature of the vertebral column (a Cobb angle of at least 10°) in the frontal plane and the axial rotation in the horizontal plane, in addition to being characterized by spinal deformities in the sagittal plane, which is why the hypopressive exercise that produces direct activation of the transversus abdominis muscle, which strengthens the abdominal girdle and stabilizes the spine. It provides benefits such as strengthening the abdominal muscles, making the lumbar spine more flexible and rearranging body posture. For this reason, the study set the objective of determining the effect of a treatment plan of hypopressive exercises for patients with scoliosis. The methodology, a quantitative approach, descriptive and longitudinal intervention, was applied. The program lasted 12 weeks with an initial and final evaluation. The population was made up of 30 patients between 18 and 45 years old. In addition, the Cobb Test was used, it was shown with a p value of 0.001 <0.05, the null hypothesis was rejected in favor of the alternative and it was concluded that the quality of life of patients with scoliosis at the IEES San Miguel de Bolívar Health Center improved. . In the final assessment, there was improvement in the classification scale, 50% of patients had moderate scoliosis and 50% had mild scoliosis, showing an improvement in the Cobb angle.

Introduction: People suffer from various musculoskeletal disorders, including shoulder pain. This is a joint with greater mobility in the human body, which is why it is one of the most affected throughout life. (1) The incidence of both tendon and joint injuries increases with age, as soft tissues experience progressive weakening and degeneration. However, repeated microtraumas or overuse related to professional or sports activities are also common causes of soft tissue injuries, regardless of the patient's age. Resistance training with blood flow restriction emerges as an alternative to high-intensity training. The American College of Sports Medicine establishes that the appropriate training intensity to increase maximum strength or muscle size should exceed 70% with 1 maximum repetition. (2) While the BFR establishes that low intensity training with 20-50% with a maximum repetition can increase strength and muscle size. (3) Objective: To determine the effect of the resistance training program with blood flow restriction to enhance muscle development in people with shoulder pain. Methods: This project has a quantitative approach since the statistical part will be managed through the SPSS platform version 29.0, application level, longitudinal and prospective, with a population of 35 young adults with shoulder pain to whom resistance training with blood flow restriction will be applied. Expected results: The aim is to determine the effect of the resistance training program with blood flow restriction to enhance muscle development in people with shoulder pain.

Aging is a latent problem that requires a multidisciplinary intervention due to the adjacent effects that are evident in this natural process, one of them is cognitive impairment, therefore, techniques have been sought to improve, prevent and anticipate the deterioration of cognitive function. Motor learning is a technique that seeks to recover previously learned functions that have been lost due to different factors, such as time or neuromusculoskeletal diseases. By implementing a motor relearning program focused on traditional games (interest and motivation), it will be possible to solve this problem, which is affecting the elderly population that has been growing during the last decade. Objective: To improve cognitive function through a motor relearning program focused on traditional games in older adults Methods: This study has a quantitative approach because we will use instruments such as the MoCA test (cognitive abilities) (1), the Get Up and Go test that allows us to obtain a diagnosis of the gait of older adults, the Tinetti scale that assesses walking skills and balance (3). The study will be conducted in the GAD of Miñarica II with a population of 30 older adults. It is a prospective, longitudinal and intervention study that will analyze motor relearning skills and cognitive function. The results showed that after applying a motor relearning program through traditional games, the older adults improved their cognitive functions, statistically evidenced according to the Wilcoxon signed rank test, obtaining a p-value of less than 0.05 in the MoCa tests.
