(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-12-05) Ttoruco Pauccar, Keisy Obispina; Diaz Mau, Aimee Yajaira
Introduction: Cardiovascular and respiratory capacity, along with grip strength, are important physical conditions that should be maintained at adequate levels throughout life to reduce the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Objective: To determine the relationship between cardiovascular capacity and grip strength in adolescents. Materials and Methods: This is an applied, non-experimental, cross-sectional, correlational study. The population consists of 1,160 secondary school students of both sexes, with a sample of 289 students meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Ruffier Dickson test will measure cardiovascular capacity, and the Camry dynamometer will measure grip strength. Data will be entered into SPSS version 23, with descriptive statistics to calculate percentages, frequency distributions, and central tendency measures, showing results in tables and graphs for each variable. The Pearson correlation coefficient will be used for statistical analysis since both variables are measured on an interval scale.

Cognitive Function and Hand Grip Strength in Older Adults at the Arzobispo Loayza National Hospital. Lima, 2023
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-10-23) Coronado Huamán, Priscila Lourdes; Puma Chombo, Jorge Eloy
People aged 60 and older are considered elderly according to the WHO, a stage in life when cognitive and motor skills decline due to the biological process of aging. Worldwide and in our country, the number of elderly people has tripled, leading health systems to be on alert to ensure this population can experience healthy aging. Older adults are vulnerable to cognitive decline and muscle weakness, which impacts their independence and quality of life. The prevalence of cognitive decline and muscle weakness is increasingly present in this population, making it essential to identify the onset of these symptoms to mitigate their effects and prevent them from interfering with daily activities. Cognitive function is an indicator of good physical and mental health and is closely linked to grip strength. Furthermore, grip strength is a biomarker related to bone density, overall strength, cognitive abilities, and motor functioning, among others.

Distance traveled and its relationship with grip strength in adult patients attending a physical medicine center, 2023
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-11-27) Condori Huaracha, Filomena; Cautín Martinez, Noemi Esther
Optimal physical condition is related to health and is primarily made up of strength, endurance, flexibility, and speed, not neglecting other capacities like coordination and balance. Physical capacity is the skill of independence and autonomy not only for performing everyday activities but also for tasks requiring more physical effort and aerobic endurance. In this sense, functional physical capacity and muscle strength decline over the years due to current lifestyles and increased sedentary behavior. Physical inactivity today is a mortality factor, with 6% contributing to it, drawing serious attention to the reduction of functional physical capacity. Muscle strength is a powerful marker of present and future health in the general population; greater muscle mass is related to strength, higher functional capacity, and a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and premature mortality. One way to measure physical capacity is through the distance covered and peripheral muscle strength in the upper limb via maximum grip strength executed with a dynamometer.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-11-20) Koenig Villasis, Roberto Carlos; Bejarano Ambrosio, Miriam Juvit
The aim was to determine how grip strength relates to functional capacity in elderly patients attended to in a physical therapy center in Surquillo. This research uses a quantitative approach, non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design with 91 participants, selected through census sampling, considering selection criteria. The grip strength variable was measured using the JAMAR dynamometer, and functional capacity was measured using the Barthel Index, both Gold Standard instruments. A sociodemographic data collection form was used. The research results showed that 65% of participants were female, and 52% were aged 70-99 years. 58% had normal strength levels, and 66% had independent functional capacity. The Spearman coefficient was 0.49, with a significance of less than 0.05, indicating a positive relationship between the variables. It is concluded that there is a significant relationship between grip strength and functional capacity in elderly patients attending a physical therapy center in Surquillo in 2023.

Hamstring flexibility and lower limb muscle strength in soccer players with knee injury from a soccer academy in Callao, 2022
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-06-21) Chavez Ravines, Edith Fiorela; Arrieta Córdova, Andy Freud
Introduction: Football is considered one of the sports that places the highest demand on the locomotor system, as the knee adopts various positions of sports gestures, increasing the risk of injury. A study by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) determined that muscle injury is the most common, particularly in the posterior region, which is supported by the Australian Football League's finding that the hamstring muscle is more prone to injury than the quadriceps. Due to this, several authors have proposed a multifactorial origin, with strength and flexibility being key factors. Therefore, this study aims to determine the relationship between hamstring flexibility and lower limb muscle strength in football players with knee injuries at a football academy. METHODOLOGY: A hypothetico-deductive, quantitative, applied research method with a non-experimental correlational design. POPULATION: 140 football players, with a sample of 100 selected using non-probabilistic sampling.

Peripheral muscle strength and oxygen desaturation in hospitalized patients of the Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo Hospital Chiclayo 2022
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-05-26) Meoño Rojas, José Miguel; Diaz Mau, Aimee Yajaira
In recent years, oxygen desaturation (SPO2) has been frequently associated with exertion and also with one of the most well-known pathologies in the world, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Another pathology of modern times is the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, also known as COVID-19. In February 2021, a study from Italy described oxygen desaturation as one of the main factors associated with this disease, along with dyspnea, fatigue, and exhaustion reported in 90% of the recorded cases in adult patients. Aging is also related, as previously mentioned, to desaturation and peripheral muscle strength (PMS), which are closely linked to frailty or associated disability, not only in the elderly but also in healthy young adults. This leads to physical limitations, which are the main factors contributing to the high morbidity and mortality worldwide, serving as clinical markers for each patient's hospitalization. It is a very common finding to see a drop in desaturation in these diseases induced by exercise or physical activity. The decrease in SPO2 by ≥4% and a drop in SPO2 to ≤88% is a persistent phenomenon.

Peripheral muscle strength and pulse oximetry in adult patients at the Honorio Delgado Espinoza Regional Hospital, 2022
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-09-28) Carbajal Alarcón, Kathia; Chero Pisfil, Santos Lucio
A frequent problem during hospital stays is the physical deterioration and muscle weakness patients experience while waiting for surgery or recovery from various pathologies, which lead to muscle mass reduction and respiratory complications that may later manifest in activities of daily living (ADLs) such as dyspnea, fatigue, and musculoskeletal disorders. This increases morbidity rates, affecting an estimated “1.71 billion people worldwide.” This research aims to explore the relationship between peripheral muscle strength and pulse oximetry in adult patients at the “Hospital Regional Honorio Delgado Espinosa,” to create intervention programs as a cardiorespiratory specialist during the hospital phase, aiming to prevent future complications and improve patients' quality of life, contributing to the scientific community. Patients suffering from multiple diseases, excluding psychiatric conditions, will participate in the study. A custom-designed form will be used for data collection, including age, sex, and diagnosis.
