Ítem Acceso Abierto Síntomas no motores en pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson en el Distrito 03D01(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Morquecho Campoverde, Jessica Cristina; Abad Martínez, Nancy Isabel; 0302201769Introduction: Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, with a worldwide prevalence of 1 to 3%, presenting motor and non-motor symptoms that affect quality of life. Objective: To identify the presence of non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease in district 03D01. Methodology: A non-experimental, quantitative, prospective, observational, cross-sectional, non-experimental study was conducted on patients with Parkinson's diagnosis from health district 03D01. Sample: The sample comprised 98 patients. Instrument: The non-motor symptoms questionnaire was the NMS Quest validated in Spanish. Results: The questionnaire demonstrated high reliability and validity, with values of Cronbach's Alpha at 0.853, McDonald's Omega at 0.856, a Composite Reliability Coefficient of 0.856, factor loadings of 0.854, and an AVE value of 0.50. The prevalent non-motor symptoms are sadness and mood, followed by anxiety and falls; per the patient report, 15.1 symptoms have a symmetrical distribution and moderate variability. Gender has no relevant impact on the presence of non-motor symptoms, and in the stage of the disease, symptoms increase as the Parkinson's stage progresses. Conclusion: The NMS Quest questionnaire is a highly reliable and valid tool for identifying non-motor symptoms, among which affective and other symptoms prevail; the average number of symptoms per patient is 15.1, reflecting the diversity and heterogeneity of the disease. Finally, symptoms worsened as the disease advanced, whereas gender had no notable impact. Keywords: Parkinson's disease, non-motor symptoms, age, gender.
