    EFECTOS DE LA REHABILITACIÓN CONVENCIONAL VERSUS REHABILITACIÓN CON REALIDAD VIRTUAL SOBRE EL EQUILIBRIO EN DEPORTISTAS CON INESTABILIDAD DE TOBILLO
    (2025-02-26) Alvarez Barriga, Rodolfo Ubaldo; Cantuña Vallejo, Paul Fernando; Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Fisioterapia
    Objective: Analyze the effects between conventional and virtual reality rehabilitation on the improvement of balance, postural control, proprioception, muscle strength and range of motion, gathering information to determine the training protocol with the best recovery results, both in athletes and people in general with functional FAI and chronic CAI ankle instability. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed based on a search of clinical trials and RCTs published in the Cochrane Library, PubMed and Google Scholar databases from January 2019 to October 2024, using MeSH terms and following the PRISMA method guidelines. Results: From a total of 17 RCTs, 2 trials addressed athletes with FAI, 7 studies addressed athletes with CAI, 5 trials addressed participants with FAI, and 3 studies addressed individuals with CAI. A total of 710 participants comprised the study: 324 people were in the group RV, 305 participants belonged to the group CG and 81 people were included in the control group without intervention. Eight combined training protocols were found to improve this condition. Conclusion: Both types of intervention, conventional and virtual reality rehabilitation were effective, since in a period of 4 to 12 weeks through their combined exercise protocols they managed to improve the previously mentioned parameters in the ankle of the participants.

    LUDOTERAPIA PARA MEJORAR MARCHA Y EQUILIBRIO EN LOS ADULTOS MAYORES DE LA PARROQUIA PASA
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Fisioterapia, 2024-09-02) Pérez Paredes, Génesis Del Cisne; Latta Sánchez, María Augusta
    The deterioration of the functional capacity, the alteration in gait and balance are the main factors that can generate risk of falls in the elderly, as well as alter their independence to perform activities of daily living, the play therapy has a traditional and fun approach to motivate the elderly to perform physical activity and through this to train gait and balanc e . Twenty-five older adults with an age range from 65 years old belonging to the Parroqui a Pasa participated in this research project, with a duration of 6 weeks with a frequency of 2 times per week, the participants executed the designed protocol of play therapy. Older adults were assessed pre and post intervention using the Timed Up and Go and Timed Unipodal Station tests. The approach of this research is quantitative in terms of data collection, non-experim ental and longitudinal. SPSS software used for statisti c a l analysis. The repetitions, completion time and difficulty of each game were gradual l y increased. The results obtained indicate that after the application of a play therapy program, gait and balance improved, reducing the risk of falls in the participants. In conclusion, inactiv i t y in the elderly deteriorates their motor functions, including balance and gait, so that the application of play therapy can be part of the routine in the elderly to reduce the risk of falls and future injuries.

    ENTRENAMIENTO DE LA MUSCULATURA OCULOMOTORA EN EL EQUILIBRIO EN ADULTOS MAYORES
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Fisioterapia, 2024-08-28) Sisa Morales, Rita Paola; Cantuña Vallejo, Paul Fernando
    The research project was developed with the objective of analyzing the effect of the training of the oculomotor musculature for the improvem ent of the balance in older adults of the Tisaleo Canton, for which an evaluation of a group of 25 older adults of which 13 were men and 12 were women, the Berg scale and the Timed Up and Go test (TUG) were used to evaluate the state in which the balance and gait of the particip a n ts were found. The intervention lasted 7 weeks, two days a week for 45 minutes during which the participants performed 10, 20, 30 and 50 series of eye movements. After the intervention, it was re-evaluated to compare the results and observe if there is an improvem ent in the older adults. The research was developed under a non-experimental quantitative approach, cross - sectional since the data was collected observationally with intervention because a comparison of the results of the evaluations was made and to verify if there was an improvem ent, therefore the research design is longitudinal because the evaluati o ns were performed at different times, it is prospective taking into account that the evaluations and the intervention was applied directly to the participants. The results of the research show that there was a greater significance of 4 times greater probabi li t y of improvement in balance, demonstrating that oculomotor training is effective in improving balance.

    Estrategia de estimulación oculomotora con luces led para mejorar el equilibrio del adulto mayor en la parroquia Atahualpa
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de Fisioterapia, 2023-03-01) Quimbita Cadena, Sharon Nicole; Robalino Morales, Gabriela Estefanía Lic. Mg.
    The older adult, as he ages, his balance deteriorates, thus having a greater risk of falls, in addition, the older adult trusts more in external signals when walking. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the effects of oculom otor stimulation with led lights to improve balance in the elderly. The investigation was carried out with a qualitative-quantitative approach, of a descriptive type and with a longitudinal design. At the beginning of the investigation, an initial evaluation of both balance and gait was carried out in the Atahualpa and Santa Fe Parish through the scale of Berg and the Timed Up and Go Test, which resulted in 92 participants having deficits in balance or gait or both, but only 20 participants were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The intervention lasted eight weeks in which we formed a path of three-meter white led lights, and we worked with the older adults on different exercises in different stages without light, medium intensity and high intensity, then the final evaluation wasxiv carried out, in where it resulted that the oculomotor strategy with led lights improved the balance and gait of the participants since the significance was less than 0.005.
