Musicoterapia y estimulación sensorial enfocado en el síndrome west con alteración del desarrollo psicomotor, mediante el uso del método padovan

Abstract

West syndrome or childhood spasms is an epileptic encephalopathy or brain disorder of unknown origin, characterized by the triad of infantile spasms, hypsarrhythmia and developmental regression, affects global development, being the psychomotor area the most affected. It has an incidence of 1 per 4,000 live births and predominates in males. There is no specific factor on this anomaly, the World Health Organization through the CIE-10 assigns it as G409 (Epilepsies, unspecified type). The objective of this research is to determine the benefits of the Padovan Method for the advancement of head control in a patient with West Syndrome, the present case is a 5- year-old female patient, who presents alteration in all areas of development, being the psychomotor area the most affected, in which stereotyped movements typical of the syndrome can be observed. The Padovan Method or Neurofunctional reorganization, is a process that combines neuroevolutionary and neurovegetative movements to adapt them peripherally to the nervous system in the form of stimuli. This methodology will be accompanied by music therapy and sensory stimulation to have greater effectiveness in the Early Stimulation sessions.
