| dc.description | In older adults, there are multiple diseases that affect their quality of life and the achievement of satisfactory longevity. One of the most significant is osteoporosis, a disease with a high incidence worldwide, a phenomenon that is also observed in Ecuador. Osteoporosis is worrying due to its ability to increase bone fragility and the risk of fractures, leading to loss of autonomy, chronic pain and decreased quality of life. This condition represents a public health problem with epidemic dimensions, especially due to the increase in life expectancy. With the aim of evaluating the physiotherapeutic approach in patients diagnosed with osteoporosis, a research study was carried out at the Day Gerontology Center "Adultos en Activa" in the Montalvo Canton, during the period from June to September 2024. This research is observational, descriptive and field, since the data was collected from the medical records of patients with the diagnosis of the pathology and from the application of the TUG clinical test. Open interviews were conducted with the physiotherapy staff of the Daytime Gerontology Center "Adultos en Activa" (Adults in Activity), as well as with the group of older adults in which the observation will be carried out, finding 30 older adults with osteoporosis out of 60 respondents. It is concluded that therapeutic exercise, supported by scientific evidence, is effective in improving the quality of life, functionality, balance, coordination and reducing the risk of falls in patients with this condition. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | En los adultos mayores, existen múltiples enfermedades que afectan su calidad de vida y la consecución de una longevidad satisfactoria. Una de las más significativas es la osteoporosis, una enfermedad con una alta incidencia a nivel mundial, fenómeno que también se observa en Ecuador. La osteoporosis es preocupante por su capacidad de aumentar la fragilidad ósea y el riesgo de fracturas, lo que lleva a pérdida de autonomía, dolor crónico y disminución de la calidad de vida. Esta condición representa un problema de salud pública con dimensiones epidémicas, especialmente debido al aumento de la esperanza de vida. Con el objetivo de evaluar el abordaje fisioterapéutico en pacientes con diagnóstico de osteoporosis, se realizó un estudio investigativo en el Centro Gerontológico Diurno "Adultos en Actividad" del Cantón Montalvo, durante el periodo de junio a septiembre de 2024. Esta investigación es de tipo observacional, descriptiva y de campo, ya que los datos se recopilaron de historias clínicas de los pacientes con el diagnóstico de la patología y de la aplicación del test clínico TUG. Se realizo entrevistas abiertas al personal fisioterapéutico del Centro Gerontológico Diurno "Adultos en Actividad", así como al grupo de personas adultas mayores en las que se va a realizar la observación encontrando a 30 personas adultas mayores que presentan osteoporosis de 60 encuestados. Se concluye que el ejercicio terapéutico, respaldado por evidencia científica, es eficaz para mejorar la calidad de vida, la funcionalidad, el equilibrio, la coordinación y reducir el riesgo de caídas en pacientes con esta condición. | es_ES |
