Abstract
Las enfermedades músculo esqueléticas son alteraciones del aparato locomotor. Término que engloba un conjunto de afectaciones de origen congénito, traumático o patológico, que desencadenan deficiencias, dolencias y trastornos motores. Objetivo . Determinar la prevalencia de enfermedades neuro-músculo esqueléticas en la Comunidad de San Eduardo. Metodología . El trabajo de investigación tuvo un alcance descriptivo, enfoque cuantitativo de corte transversal y carácter deductivo. Para el estudio se utilizó el instrumento RFT 5-33, que contiene cinco secciones, las cuatro primeras identificaron a la familia, por datos de ubicación; rol que desempeñó el participante; tipo y composición familiar; riesgos individuales; antecedentes patológicos familiares y la quinta sección, el perfil de los miembros de la comunidad. Resultados . La edad según el sexo predominó de 2.759 personas, un 75 % (n=2069) a mayores de 42 años; un 25 % (n=690) a menores de 13 años; edad promedio de 28,6 años, una mediana de 25 años y máxima de 99 años de los cuales 1.388 (50,3 %) hombres y 1.371 (49,7 %) mujeres, que no representaron diferenciación significativa con respecto al sexo. Con respecto a la prevalencia de enfermedades neuro-músculo esqueléticas, se determinó a la lumbalgia en un 26 %; artritis el 16 %; osteoporosis 14,1 %; artrosis en un 13,6 % y en menor porcentaje el trastorno neurológico central en un 7 % relacionada a enfermedad mental y epilepsia. Conclusión . Las enfermedades músculo esqueléticas, que prevalecieron fueron la lumbalgia, artritis, osteoporosis y artrosis, de acuerdo a la base de datos del Proyecto Familias y Comunidades Saludables.

For the study, the RFT 5-33 instrument was used, which contains five sections, the first four identified the family by location data; role played by the participant; family type and composition; individual risks; family pathological history and the fifth section, the profile of community members. Results. Age according to sex predominated in 2,759 people, 75% (n = 2,069) over 42 years old; 25% (n = 690) to children under 13 years of age; average age of 28.6 years, a median of 25 years and a maximum of 99 years of which 1,388 (50.3%) were men and 1,371 (49.7%) were women, who did not represent significant differentiation with respect to sex. Regarding the prevalence of neuro-musculoskeletal diseases, low back pain was determined in 26%; arthritis 16%; osteoporosis 14.1%; osteoarthritis in 13.6% and in a lower percentage the central neurological disorder in 7% related to mental illness and epilepsy. Conclusion . The musculoskeletal diseases that prevailed were low back pain, arthritis, osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, according to a database from the Healthy Families and Communities Project.
