Resumen
Objetivo: Determinar cambios en la calidad de vida relacionada
con la salud y empoderamiento de la salud en un grupo de adultos
mayores al aplicar un programa educativo.
Método: Estudio cuasi experimental, en un grupo experimento
de 52 adultos mayores. Se evaluó la calidad de vida relacionada
con la salud y el empoderamiento de la salud antes y después
de un programa educativo relacionado con las enfermedades no
transmisibles, basado en las guías metodológicas diseñadas por las
investigadoras, y aplicado durante 8 semanas.
Resultados: Se encontró que un 38% de las personas presentaron
riesgo cardiovascular moderado y un 33% riesgo alto/extremo; el
58% presentó hipertensión, el 20% diabetes mellitus de tipo 2 y
el 8% reportó dislipidemia. En la calidad de vida relacionada con
la salud se observaron cambios favorables en las dimensiones de
actividades sociales (p = 0,049), cambio en el estado de salud (p =
0,004), estado de salud (p = 0,045), dolor (p = 0,43) y puntuación
total de las viñetas COOP WONCA (p = 0,005). En los cambios
ocurridos en el empoderamiento de la salud se encontró significación
estadística en la dimensión “Me conozco lo suficiente para escoger lo
que más conviene a mi salud” (p = 0,006).
Conclusiones: Los resultados indican que la educación sanitaria
sobre las enfermedades no trasmisibles mejora la calidad de vida
relacionada con la salud y aportan al empoderamiento de la salud en
las personas mayores.
Objective: To determine changes in quality of life related to health and health empowerment in a group of elderly people by applying an educational program. Method: quasi-experimental study, in a group of 52 seniors. The quality of life related to health and health empowerment before and after the educational program related to noncommunicable diseases was evaluated, basing on methodological guidelines designed by the researchers, and applying it for eight weeks. Results: It was found that 38% of people had moderate cardiovascular risk, 33% high / extreme risk; 58% had hypertension, 20% diabetes mellitus type 2, and 8% reported dyslipidemia. In the quality of life related to health favorable changes were observed in the dimensions of social activities (p = 0.049), change in health status (p = 0.004), health status (p = 0.045), pain (p = 0,43) and total score of the COOP WONCA (p = 0.005). On changes in health empowerment, it was found statistical significance in the dimension “I know me enough to choose what is the best for my health” (p = 0.006). Conclusions: The results show that health education on chronic noncommunicable diseases improve the quality of life related to health and contribute to the empowerment of health in the elderly.
