Item ACTIVIDADES RECREATIVAS PARA MEJORAR LAS HABILIDADES MOTORAS DE MIEMBRO SUPERIOR EN NIÑOS CON SÍNDROME DE DOWN(2025-02-27) Yauli Achachi, Gissela Ivonne; Latta Sánchez María Augusta; Universidad Técnica de Ambato/ Facultad de Ciencias de Salud /Carrera de FisioterapiaDown syndrome (DS), or trisomy 21, is usually a chromosomal disorder caused at the genetic level. Epidemiological studies reveal that approximately 1 in every 700 to 800 births in the world presents this alteration. Given that this condition affects several motor areas, the present research project was carried out with the objective of determining whether recreational activities contribute to the improvement of upper limb motor skills in children aged 2 to 5 years with Down syndrome. This research was framed in a quasi-experimental design, with a longitudinal and quantitative approach. This project included the participation of 25 children with Down syndrome from Latidos Down Ambato Fundación. The psychomotor development test (TEPSI) was used to evaluate the child's motor performance in categories of normality, risk and delay, with a total of 12 sessions of 30 to 40 minutes 3 times a week. Among the results obtained, it was found that, of the total intervention population, the children initially presented a 64% deficit in motor skills, while after the intervention this increased to 84%, which indicates that the treatment applied has favorable effects on the development of motor skills. Thus, concluding that the application of play activities has proven to be effective for the improvement of motor skills in children with Down syndrome and to contribute to the strengthening of their autonomy and active participation.Item “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 GabrielaThe 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.Item "La presente investigación se realizó en el laboratorio de Estimulación Temprana y Práctica Docente Asistencial, de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud, de la Universidad Técnica de Ambato, con una población de 21 niños en el rango de edad de 0 a 3años, centrándose en comprobar si la estimulación temprana que reciben los niños en el laboratorio influye en el desarrollo psicomotor; partiendo de los objetivos específicos de caracterizar a la población sujeta a la investigación; valora su desarrollo psicomotor a partir de la escala Bayley de desarrollo infantil – III, la cual está dividida en tres escalas: escala cognitiva, lenguaje y motora; posterior a esto analizar cómo es aplicada la estimulación temprana en el laboratorio, la misma que es indagada a partir de una encuesta aplicada al personal; y así establecer una relación entre variables planteadas, luego de realizar la valoración a cada niño y por medio de los resultados obtenidos se proceda a comprobar las hipótesis planteadas donde dentro de las edades de 6 a 9 meses y 2 a 3 años la estimulación temprana influye en el desarrollo psicomotor y dentro de las edades de 9 a 12 meses y de 1 a 2 años no influye la estimulación temprana debido a factores de su entorno.(Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Estimulación Temprana, 2019-04-01) Díaz Moyolema, Andrea Anabel; Troya Ortiz, Elsa Verónica Lcda. Mg.The present investigation was carried out in the laboratory of early stimulation and Teaching Assisting Practice, of the Faculty of Health Sciences, of the Technical University of Ambato, with a population of 21 children in the age range of 0 to 3 years, focusing on check whether the early stimulation received by children in the laboratory influences psychomotor development; starting from the specific objectives of characterizing the population subject to the investigation; assesses their psychomotor development from the Bayley scale of child development - III, which is divided into three scales: cognitive scale, language and motor; After this, analyze how early stimulation is applied in the laboratory, which is investigated based on a survey applied to personnel; and thus establish a relationship between variables raised, after making the assessment to each child and through the results obtained to proceed to check the hypotheses raised where within the ages of 6 to 9 months and 2 to 3 years early stimulation influences In the psychomotor development and within the ages of 9 to 12 months and 1 to 2 years does not influence early stimulation due to environmental factors.
