El autismo es uno de los trastornos neurológicos más comunes que afectan al desarrollo neurológico y psicomotor de niños. Diversas intervenciones terapéuticas pueden intervenir en las desordenes de la comunicación y en las conductas estereotipadas, tales como la danza, que como terapia puede activar la sensorialidad permitiendo la mejora del gesto. En este estudio se buscó observar los efectos de la danzaterapia al desempeño motor y del gesto, al equilibrio del cuerpo y de la marcha, así como a la calidad de vida de un adolescente autista. Se trata de un estudio experimental con un joven de 15 años de edad, el cual participó de 120 sesiones de danzaterapia, con duración media de 30 minutos, llevada a cabo dos veces por semana en días distintos, durante un año. Se utilizaron los instrumentos: la Medida de la Función Motora (MFM), la Prueba de Tinetti y la Escala de Evaluación del Autismo Infantil (Childhood Autism Rating Scale - CARS). De acuerdo a la MFM la puntuación total aumentó un 27,08%; la Prueba de Tinetti con respeto al equilibrio aumentó del 68% al 75% y la marcha del 16% al 66%; la CARS bajó del 41,5 al 34 puntos, pasando la clasificación del trastorno, según los parámetros propuestos, de grave a moderado. Así, la danzaterapia puede optimizar la conducta neurológica y psicomotora del joven con trastornos autísticos.no hay comprobación suficiente sobre la eficacia de la VNI en el aumento de la tolerancia al ejercicio.Descargas
