| dc.description | The aging population has led to an increased prevalence of cognitive impairment in older adults, significantly raising the risk of falls, one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in this demographic. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the implementation of the vivifrail program and fall prevention in older adults with cognitive impairment attending the SAGI Day Care Center for Older Adults in Quito. The methodology follows Prospective observational design, with an intervention group participating in the vivifrail program, focused on exercises for strength, balance, and endurance, and a control group receiving conventional treatment. Assessments will include validated tools such as the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and specific scales to measure fall risk, functionality, and cognitive capacity. Data will be analyzed to determine significant differences between the groups in terms of muscle strength, balance, and fall frequency. This study seeks to highlight the importance of structured physical exercise in promoting functional autonomy and reducing fall-related complications in older adults. The expected results will contribute to the development of evidence-based geriatric physiotherapy programs, improving the quality of life for this vulnerable population. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | El envejecimiento poblacional ha incrementado la prevalencia de deterioro cognitivo en adultos mayores, lo que aumenta significativamente el riesgo de caídas, una de las principales causas de morbilidad y mortalidad en esta población. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo principal evaluar la relación entre la implementación del programa Vivifrail y la prevención de caídas en adultos mayores con deterioro cognitivo que asisten al Centro Diurno Gerontológico SAGI en Quito. La metodología se basa en un diseño observacional prospectivo, con un grupo de intervención que participará en el programa Vivifrail, enfocado en ejercicios de fortalecimiento, equilibrio y resistencia, y un grupo control que recibirá el tratamiento convencional. Las evaluaciones incluirán herramientas validadas como el Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) y escalas específicas para medir el riesgo de caídas, funcionalidad y capacidad cognitiva. Los datos serán analizados para determinar diferencias significativas entre ambos grupos en términos de fuerza muscular, equilibrio y frecuencia de caídas. Este estudio busca evidenciar la importancia del ejercicio físico estructurado en la promoción de la autonomía funcional y la reducción de complicaciones relacionadas con caídas en adultos mayores. Los resultados esperados contribuirán al diseño de programas de fisioterapia geriátrica basados en evidencia, mejorando la calidad de vida de esta población vulnerable. | es_ES |
