Resumen
La fluidez verbal esta implícita en todo el proceso vital del individuo, este estudio muestra que la capacidad de comunicarnos por medio del leguaje se mantiene a pesar del deterioro “normal” que se sufre al convertirse en octogenario, cabe destacar que la fluidez verbal se compone de campos importantes que hacen de ella un medio para comunicar, y dichos campos se pueden ver alterados con el pasar de los años produciendo características notables en el lenguaje, pero no desapareciéndolo completamente.
Este es un estudio descriptivo que evalúa a dos pacientas octogenarias institucionalizadas en el hogar geriátrico siervas de Jesús de la ciudad de Barranquilla quienes fueron evaluadas con el test minimental para descartar cualquier tipo de deterioro cognitivo, luego se utilizo la escala de inteligencia wechsler para adultos (WAIS) que permitió medir las áreas relacionadas con la fluidez verbal, dando como resultado que algunas áreas de la fluidez verbal se mantienen con la edad en estas pacientes; estas áreas son: vocabulario, información y comprensión.

This is a descriptive study that evaluates two patients octogenarian institutionalized in the home hospice siervas de Jesús de la ciudad de Barranquilla who were evaluated with the minimental test to rule out any type of cognitive impairment, then use the scale of Wechsler Adult Intelligence (WAIS) Allowing measuring areas of verbal fluidity, with the result that some areas of verbal fluency is maintained with age in these patients; These areas are: vocabulary, information and understanding.
