Objective: To determine the relationship between physical activity and cognitive impairment in obese older adults treated at the CAM-EsSalud, Cusco, 2022. Material and methods: A transectional, correlational, cross-sectional, prospective study was carried out at the CAM-EsSalud, Cusco during the year 2022 in 90 older adults, who met the selection criteria; Questionnaires were applied to obtain general information, in addition to the Parraguez Physical Activity Questionnaire and the Pfeiffer Test Spanish version. The information was placed in Microsoft Excel version 2016 templates, which were introduced to the statistical program SPSS v.27 to proceed with descriptive statistics and multivariate analysis. Results: Obese older adults with a low level of physical activity presented cognitive impairment in 94.7%, while obese older adults who have a medium level of physical activity presented cognitive impairment in 53.3% and those with a high level of physical activity they did not show cognitive impairment.
