Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted at the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Unit of the Mexican Institute of Social Security Siglo XXI, in Mexico City, from January to May 2023. The sample size was calculated, and the type of sampling was probabilistic. Forty-seven participants of both genders, over 60 years of age, with no history of neurological pathology were included, to whom the MoCA test was applied, then six institutional cognitive rehabilitation sessions of 40 minutes were performed, and at the end of the sessions the measurement instrument was applied again. Interferential statistics were performed using the Wilcoxon test, and Student’s t-test, both with an estimate of p< 0.05. Results: The initial MoCA score was 21.9±4.8 points, and the final score was 26.3±1.9, which corresponds to a normal score, with a difference of 4.4 points (p<0.05).  Most of the MoCA test sections had p<0.05, with the exception of identification, sentence repetition and orientation domains, the best results also corresponded to the sections of visuoconstruction (clock), abstraction, and memory. Conclusión: the use of cognitive rehabilitation programs, and strategies applied to the geriatric population have a significant impact on the improvement of attention and memory.Objetivo: evaluar la eficacia de un programa de rehabilitación cognitiva en pacientes geriátricos utilizando como instrumento de medición el test Montreal Cognitive Assesment (MoCA). Métodos: se realizó un estudio cuasi experimental en la Unidad de Medicina Física y Rehabilitación Siglo XXI de la Ciudad de México del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social de enero a mayo del 2023. Se realizó cálculo de tamaño de muestra, el tipo de muestreo fue probabilístico. Se incluyeron 47 participantes de ambos sexos, mayores de 60 años de edad, sin antecedente de patología neurológica, a quienes se les aplicó el test de MoCA, posteriormente se implementaron seis sesiones de rehabilitación cognitiva institucional de 40 minutos de duración cada una, al término de las sesiones se aplicó nuevamente el instrumento de medición. Se realizó estadística interferencial y se utilizó la prueba de Wilcoxon, y la prueba t de Student, ambas con estimación de p< 0.05. Resultados: el valor de test de MoCA inicial fue 21.9±4.8 puntos y el final 26.3±1.9, que corresponde a un puntaje normal, con diferencia de 4.4 puntos (p<0.05).  La mayoría de los apartados del test de MoCA tuvieron p<0.05, excepto los dominios de identificación, repetición de frases y orientación, además los mejores resultados correspondieron a los apartados de visuoconstrucción (reloj), abstracción y memoria. Conclusión: el uso de programas y estrategias de rehabilitación cognitiva aplicados a la población geriátrica impactan significativamente en la mejoría de atención y memoria.Facultad de Medicina2024-06-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistas.unam.mx/index.php/atencion_familiar/article/view/8883310.22201/fm.14058871p.2024.388833Atención Familiar; Vol. 31 Núm. 3; 160-1642992-782X10.22201/fm.14058871p.2024.3reponame:Atención Familiarinstname:UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL AUTÓNOMA DE MÉXICOinstacron:UNAMspahttps://www.revistas.unam.mx/index.php/atencion_familiar/article/view/88833/78079http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/888332024-08-16T16:51:49Z
