About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of a Home-Based Cognitive Rehabilitation Program Driven by a Tablet Application in Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment

In this study, a more specific and systematic Home-Based Cognitive Rehabilitation Program Driven by a Tablet Application is developed and the purpose of the program is to check whether cognitive function is improved when the program is applied to patients with MCI.

Read the detailed description

The subjects of recruitment were the elderly with mild cognitive impairment living in the local community. Assessments were conducted 7 days before and after the intervention. Subjects received Korean-Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA), semantic verbal emory test (SVLT), number memorization test; Digit Span Test (DST), category word fluency test (CWFT), phonemic word fluency test (PWFT), Korean-mini mental state test (K-MMSE), and geriatric depression scale (GDS) before and 8 weeks after the intervention.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of the Korean-Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA) score

    It is a tool to evaluate overall cognitive function. Possible scores range from 0(lowest cognitive function) to 30 (highest cognitive function). Change = Paired t-test with baseline score and week 8 score.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 8

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change of the semantic verbal emory test (SVLT) score

    It is a tool to evaluate language memory function. Possible scores range from 0(lowest) to 36 (highest). Change = Paired t-test with baseline score and week 8 score.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 8

  2. Change of the Digit Span Test (DST) score

    It is a tool to evaluate number memorization and attention. Possible scores range from 0(lowest) to 9 (highest). Change = Paired t-test with baseline score and week 8 score.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 8

  3. Change of the category word fluency test (CWFT) score

    It is a tool to evaluate executive function. In one minute, the speak words of the given category is performed, and the number of words spoken within the time is evaluated as a score. Change = Paired t-test with baseline score and week 8 score.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 8

  4. Change of the phonemic word fluency test (PWFT) score

    It is a tool to evaluate executive function. In one minute, the speak words that start with a given phoneme is performed, and the number of words spoken within the time is evaluated as a score. Change = Paired t-test with baseline score and week 8 score.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 8

  5. Change of the geriatric depression scale (GDS) score

    It is a tool to evaluate degree of depression. Possible scores range from 0(lowest depression) to 21 (highest depression). Change = Paired t-test with baseline score and week 8 score.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Home based cognitive rehabilitation program in people with Cognitive Impairment and Mild Cognitive Impairment, run by Pusan National University Yangsan 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 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 of the Korean-Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA) score (time frame: Baseline and Week 8). 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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Mar 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
