About this study

The purpose of this study is to examine therapeutic efficacy of cognitive Training based on location information and activity in people with mild cognitive impairment

Read the detailed description
  • A single arm, open-label study.
  • Cognitive Training based on location information and activity is consists of both cognitive training and exercise(walking) using objects in the participant's home. The researchers visit the participant's home and find objects that were mainly used in the real life and easy to access (table, computer, television, etc.) and attach the recognition Bluetooth Low Energy(BLE) Tag (sticker integrated). The stickers printed on the tags consist of word categories (eg animals) belonging to a particular category, so as to assist strategic recall in the stepped recall task. The participants follow the instruction from the tablet-based program to perform the task. During performing the cognitive training program, the participants are guided to walk between the tagged objects in their home.
  • The participants are aged over 60 years old and diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in CERAD-TS1 score

    Total Score of the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease (CERAD) Neuropsychological Assessment Battery (CERAD-TS1) . CERAD-TS1 is generated by simply summing the scores of six tests including the 1) Verbal fluency (range 0-24), 2) Boston naming test (0-15), 3) Word List Memory (0-30), 4) Word List Recall (0-10), 5) Word list recognition (0-10), 6) Constructional Praxis (0-11). The range of CERAD-TS1 score is 0 to 100 points), and the higher score represents the better cognitive function.

    Measured: baseline and 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in MMSE score

    Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), ranged 0-30, the higher score represents the better cognitive function

    Measured: baseline and 6 weeks

  2. Change in SMCQ score

    Subjective Memory Complaint Questionnaire (SMCQ), ranged 0-14, the higher score represents the more difficulties in memory function for everyday life

    Measured: baseline and 6 weeks

  3. Change in GDS score

    Geriatric depression scale (GDS), ranged 0-30, the higher score represents the more severe depressive symptoms

    Measured: baseline and 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing tablet based Cognitive Training based on location information in people with Mild Cognitive Impairment, run by Seoul National University Bundang Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in CERAD-TS1 score (time frame: baseline and 6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
