Abstract

Introduction

Aging and psychiatric problems affect balance and proprioception. Specific training in these areas, over 11 to 12 weeks, can significantly improve motor skills and reduce the risk of falls in older adults.

Material and methods

An observational, analytical study was carried out to evaluate proprioception, gait and balance in male psychiatric patients using tests such as Tinetti, Romberg, Tandem and Get Up and Go for. An exercise program was designed to improve these abilities and functionality within the mental health hospital in Villahermosa, Tabasco, in 2024.

Results

Seven psychiatric patients were evaluated and improved their balance, coordination and proprioception. Final assessments showed significant improvements in overall functionality and reduced risk of falls, with the Tinneti test (P = .022), Get Up and Go (0.021), Romberg, Tandem and diadokinesia improving at the end of the study.

Conclusion

The use of physiotherapy improves proprioception, balance and mobility in older adults in a mental health hospital.

These tests were applied to a total series of 7 cases.
