Telehealth visits for people with Lewy body dementia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a home-based, video (telehealth) approach for people with Lewy body dementia, with caregiver support. It may help because it aims to deliver care and training through Zoom rather than in-person visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- A specialist has diagnosed you with Lewy body dementia (LBD)
- Your dementia symptoms are considered mild to moderate by a clinician
- You have internet access and a device that can use Zoom
- A caregiver lives with you and is willing to take part
- You can communicate in English

This trial follows people with probable Lewy body dementia over several years to see how the brain changes on MRI and on memory/thinking tests. It may help researchers understand disease progression and improve future care for Lewy body dementia.
This study tests digital health tools (like sensors or apps) to track symptoms of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) at home. It may help researchers understand how these conditions progress and improve care.
This study looks at how brain function changes over time in people with Lewy body disease or Alzheimer's. Researchers will use memory tests, MRI scans, and EEG (a painless brain-wave recording) to track these changes, and you will need a family member or friend to help report on your daily life.
This early-stage study tests whether ambroxol can act as a “disease-modifying” treatment for Lewy body dementia, meaning it aims to change how the illness progresses rather than only relieve symptoms. You may be asked to complete brain testing and have stable medications while the study monitors memory, thinking, and safety.
This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) can help reduce psychotic symptoms, like hallucinations, in people with dementia with Lewy bodies. It also looks at how this might ease the day-to-day burden on caregivers.
This study offers online peer support groups for family caregivers of people with Lewy Body Dementia who are experiencing depression or stress. You'll connect with other caregivers in similar situations to share experiences and get support.
