Item Programa de ejercicios basado en el método pilates para la flexibilidad muscular en trabajadores avícolas(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Centro de Posgrados, 2023-07-06) Pérez Cunalata, Alex Omar; Ortiz Villalba, Paola GabrielaMusculoskeletal disorders in poultry workers range from mild discomfort to severe pain and illness; mainly caused by workload, lack of flexibility and aspects of the organization. Thus, one of the most effective interventions are Pilates exercises due to their positive effects on the physical and emotional condition in general. In this way, it was proposed to design an exercise program based on Pilates to improve muscle flexibility in POULTRY workers; for which an observational study of longitudinal cohort was developed, in 29 workers from the production area of the Cecilita poultry company that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The intensity of pain was assessed with the visual analog scale and the level of flexibility with the Flexitest, to determine the needs of the workers and design the program, as well as a review of the literature to establish the appropriate dose. Then the program was validated by expert judgment and it was applied for 12 weeks and the intensity of the pain and the level of flexibility were re-evaluated. The results showed significant clinical and statistical improvements in the entire population, decreasing the intensity of pain from moderate and severe to mild (p=0.000) and improving flexibility from levels 1 and 2, which are poor and medium, to level 3, which is good flexibility. (p=0.000) after the program. In this way, it is concluded that a program of active breaks based on Pilates improves muscle flexibility and decreases the intensity of pain in poultry workers.Item Programa de pausas activas como estrategia en el manejo de la sintomatología musculoesquelética en el personal de oficina(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Centro de Posgrados, 2023-06-28) Molina Andrade, Verónica Lucia; Arcos Reina, Rafael AndrésThe working day entails a lot of downtime for the worker, causing from slight discomfort, recurring pain to temporary and permanent injuries that represent a high socio-sanitary expense; It also has a great economic impact for the company. Thus, the evidence recommends active breaks (PA) as an effective and economical tool to reduce the effects of occupational risks, but there is no specific exercise program or structure according to the needs of each field or work context.

From the review of the literature and an evaluation with the Nordic Standardized Questionnaire and the EVA scale, the appropriate exercises for the population and their dosage were established, designing a program, which was validated by the judgment of three experts and content validation coefficient calculation (CVC), for its application during 8 weeks, with a frequency of 3 times a week, and a time of 20 min for session. The results revealed a greater frequency of discomfort in the neck, shoulders and thoracolumbar region, a decrease in musculoskeletal symptoms in frequency, duration, and intensity of both clinical and statistical pain (p=0.000). In this way, it is concluded that a program of active breaks based on Yoga has effects on the musculoskeletal symptoms of office workers.
