Abstract
La presente investigación parte de la necesidad de comparar el estado de depresión y deterioro cognitivo entre adultos mayores institucionalizados y no institucionalizados del municipio de Fusagasugá (Cundinamarca). Serecolectó información a partir de la aplicación de dos instrumentos (Escala de depresión geriátrica “Yesavage” y el cuestionario SPMSQ de Pfeiffer) bajo la metodología de investigación cuantitativa, con un diseño de investigación no experimental/transversal, con alcance correlacional, aplicado a una población total de 124 personas mayores, encontrando elementos que indican que existe una diferencia entre el nivel de depresión y deterioro cognitivo de los adultos mayores institucionalizados y no institucionalizados, mientras por otra parte no se evidencia correlación en los niveles de deterioro cognitivo y depresión entre ambas poblaciones concluyendo que los niveles tanto de deterioro cognitivo y depresión reflejan mayor grado en la población institucionalizada.
The current investigation starts from the need to compare the state of depression and cognitive deterioration between institutionalized and non-institutionalized elderly adults in the Fusagasugá city (Cundinamarca). Information was collected from the application of two questionnaires (“Yesavage” Geriatric Depression Scale and the Pfeiffer SPMSQ questionnaire) under the quantitative research methodology, with a non-experimental / cross-sectional research design, with correlational scope, applied to a total population of 124 elderly people, finding elements that indicate that there is a difference between the level of depression and cognitive deterioration of institutionalized and non-institutionalized elderly, while on the other hand there is no correlation between the levels of cognitive decline and depression between the two populations concluding that the levels of both cognitive decline and depression reflect a greater degree of these in the institutionalized population.
