Protocolo de ejercicios para el manejo domiciliario del paciente hemipléjico

Abstract

The present project develops the topic: "Exercise Protocol for the home management of hemiplegic patients", the objective was: to implement an exercise protocol for the home management of hemiplegic patients in the beneficiaries of the Home Care Project for Disability of the Palora canton of the province of Morona Santiago. The methodological design had a quantitative approach since data were collected to help verify the results numerically. The type of longitudinal analytical study was developed in an established time of 16 weeks, where an initial and final evaluation was applied, for which the ashworth test (spasticity) and tinetti test (balance and gait) were used. The intervention was carried out 3 times a week in each of the homes, in different phases and series in a progressive manner. The population was 15 people with hemiplegia aged 20 to 64 years. The results in the tinetti test and ashworth test showed a p value of 0.000 < 0.005, so the null hypothesis is rejected, i.e. that the exercise protocol was effective in improving balance, gait and spasticity in people with hemiplegia.
