A Comparison of the Efficacy of Different Rehabilitation Strategies in Mild Cognitive Impairment

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)

In brief

The aim of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the effects of two different rehabilitation approaches on cognitive and functional outcomes in older adults diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The study compares two widely used approaches in the field of cognitive rehabilitation: Computer-Based Cognitive Rehabilitation (CBCR) and Dual-Task Training (DTT). The planned study will be conducted using a randomized controlled, parallel-group experimental design, in which individuals aged 65 and older diagnosed with MCI will be assigned to two intervention groups via computer-assisted randomization. Both groups will receive training for eight weeks, twice a week for 45 minutes each session, under the supervision of a specialist physical therapist. Pre- and post-intervention assessments will measure general cognitive function, executive function, fall risk, dual-task performance, functional independence, fear of falling, and physical activity level. This study is based on the assumption that cognitive decline is not limited to neuropsychological performance alone but is closely related to motor performance, safe mobility, and quality of life. The findings are expected to contribute to clinical decision-making processes by providing evidence-based data on which rehabilitation approach is more effective and feasible for older adults with HBB.
