Resumen

El número de enfermedades neurodegenerativas asociadas al envejecimiento, tales como la enfermedad de Alzheimer s (AD), está aumentando rápidamente. El deterioro cognitivo leve (MCI) se diagnostica cuando una persona presenta déficits cognitivos, por lo general relacionados con la memoria, pero todavía no cumple los criterios para un diagnóstico de demencia. Se considera normalmente una fase de transición entre el envejecimiento normal y la demencia. Los beneficios del ejercicio para las personas con deterioro cognitivo leve no son totalmente claras y merecen una mayor investigación. El objetivo de este estudio piloto fue analizar los beneficios físicos de un programa de ejercicios en grupo para personas con deterioro cognitivo leve. Utilizando un diseño pre-post, veinte personas con deterioro cognitivo leve y se los dividió en un grupo experimental (10), que siguió un programa de ejercicios de tres meses, y un grupo de control (10) que siguieron a la atención de rutina. Los resultados de este estudio muestran que la participación en un programa de ejercicio supervisado fue eficaz para mejorar el rendimiento en el Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT), la programada para levantarse y Go Test (TGUP), y la prueba de caminata de 8 metros, lo que implica ganancias en la capacidad cardiovascular, la marcha y el equilibrio dinámico. Tras el período de intervención, el grupo de control no sólo no mejoró en cualquiera de las pruebas de aptitud física, pero también mostró un peor rendimiento significativo en el (PM6M) y la puntuación total Tinetti. Por lo tanto, un programa de ejercicios basado en el grupo supervisado puede representar una estrategia viable y eficaz para mejorar la función física en personas con MCI.
