Ítem Acceso Abierto Calidad de vida en pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson en el distrito 03D01(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Romero Guamán, Víctor Manuel; Romero Sacoto, Lilia Azucena; 0302714357Parkinson's Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that significantly impacts patients' quality of life. Objective: To determine the quality of life in adults with Parkinson's Disease. Methodology: A non-experimental, observational, cross-sectional study was conducted. Sample: The sample comprised 98 patients with Parkinson's Disease. Instruments: The validated PDQ-39 scale, consisting of 8 dimensions with 39 questions, was used. Data were analyzed using JAMOVI. Results: The average age was 74.9 years; 53% were women, 61% lived in non-adapted housing, 30% were in stage 1 of the disease, and 74% were taking Levodopa. High reliability and validity were demonstrated through Cronbach's alpha, Omega, composite rel iability, Lambda, and Average Extracted Variance, all exceeding 0.8. Most variables indicated a moderate risk, except for stigma and emotional well-being, which showed low risk —no significant differences between observed gender or housing type and quality of life. Quality of life is equally affected in men and women. Conclusions: The mean age was 74.9 years; most were women, and in stage 1 of the disease. The instrument demonstrated high validity and reliability; most dimensions were moderately affected; no significant differences were found between gender and quality of life or between housing type and quality of life. Keywords: quality of life, Parkinson's Disease, prevalence.Ítem Acceso Abierto "Conocimientos y prácticas del personal profesional de enfermería sobre el uso de antisépticos en curación de heridas.
