%X Se realiz¨® un estudio descriptivo, longitudinal y prospectivo para evaluar la efectividad de la digitopuntura y electromagnetopuntura en el tratamiento de pacientes con ptosis palpebral cong¨¦nita (leve y moderada), atendidos en la consulta de fisiatr¨ªa del Departamento de Terapia F¨ªsica y Rehabilitaci¨®n del Hospital Infantil Norte Docente "Dr. Juan de la Cruz Mart¨ªnez Maceira" de Santiago de Cuba en el primer semestre de 2010. La muestra estuvo conformada por 50 ni os de ambos sexos y distribuida aleatoriamente en los grupos A y B, con 25 integrantes en cada caso: los primeros recibieron digitopuntura y los segundos electromagnetopuntura, si bien esta ¨²ltima result¨® ser m¨¢s efectiva, pues garantiz¨® en los 3 ciclos terap¨¦uticos una evoluci¨®n favorable en todos los que presentaban un descenso leve del p¨¢rpado y en m¨¢s de las tres cuartas partes de los afectados por ptosis moderada. A descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study was carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of digitopuncture and electromagnetopuncture in the treatment of patients with congenital palpebral ptosis (mild and moderate), attended in the physiatry consulting room of the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Department of "Dr. Juan de la Cruz Martinez Maceira" Northern Teaching Children Hospital from Santiago de Cuba in the first semester of 2010. The sample was formed by 50 children of both sexes and randomly distributed in the groups A and B, with 25 patients in each case: the first ones received digitopuncture and the second ones received electromagnetopuncture, although the last therapy turned out to be more effective, because it guaranteed in the 3 therapeutic cycles a favorable clinical course in all those who presented a mild drooping of the eyelid and in more than the three fourth parts of those affected by moderate ptosis.
