Se presenta el resultado de una investigaci��n cuasiexperimental a peque��a escala basada en el programa Vivifrail. En 2019, se realiz�� una valoraci��n funcional a personas mayores de dos centros de jubilados de Pi��eyro, Avellaneda. Luego, se dise���� y aplic�� una propuesta de ejercicio f��sico multicomponente con dos sesiones semanales de entrenamiento y otros h��bitos saludables, como estrategia para la promoci��n de la capacidad funcional durante tres meses. Al finalizar, se volvi�� a evaluar la funcionalidad de los participantes. Los resultados comprueban que este entrenamiento result�� eficaz para preservar la capacidad funcional y disminuir riesgo de ca��das de personas a partir de los 60 a��os, pues 88% de las participantes alcanz�� la funcionalidad de persona robusta, y solo 19% evidenci�� riesgo de ca��das. Adem��s, este programa pudo aplicarse en un contexto social comunitario (no sanitario) y en forma grupal (no personalizado) aun cuando estuvo constituido por personas con funcionalidad heterog��nea. ABSTRACT The result of a small-scale experimental research based on the Vivifrail Program is presented. In 2019, physical function tests have been proposed to older adults from two retirement centers in Pi��eyro, Avellaneda. Then, a proposal for multicomponent physical exercise and other healthy habits were designed and applied as a strategy for the preservation of functional ability for three months. At the end, the functionality of the participants was re-evaluated. The results prove that this training was effective in preserving functional ability and reducing the risk of falls in people over 60 years of age, since 88% of the participants reached the functionality of a robust person, and only 19% showed risk of falls. In addition, this program could be applied in a community social context (not sanitary) and in a group (not personalized) even with people with heterogeneous functionality. |
