Can brainwave training help with mild cognitive impairment?
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests if a technique called neurofeedback (which uses brainwave training) can help people with mild cognitive impairment. You would sit with sensors on your head to learn how to change your brain activity, which might improve memory or thinking.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) – meaning memory or thinking changes more than normal aging but not dementia.
- You are a patient at the Memory Clinic at Providence Care Hospital in Kingston, Ontario.
- Your memory issues are not caused by a psychiatric condition or a recent brain injury.

This study tests a computer-based brain-training program designed to improve memory and thinking skills in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It aims to see if these exercises can help keep the brain healthy and slow down memory decline.
This study tests whether a mix of physical exercise and computer brain training can improve working memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help by strengthening memory skills and supporting brain health through supervised activity and computer-based practice.
This trial tests whether listening to special sounds called binaural beats can help older adults with mild memory or thinking problems improve their cognitive function. If you live in a nursing home and have mild cognitive impairment (not dementia), you may be able to join.
This study tests whether a digital intervention can help older adults (60+) maintain or improve cognitive function. It is designed for healthy adults or those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and people who do not regularly play a musical instrument or have extensive music training.
This trial studies whether a computer-based brain training program can help thinking skills in older adults. It is designed for people who are generally healthy and have not received similar training before.
This study tests a brain-stimulation approach to help improve memory as people age. You may be able to take part if you can consent and meet safety and medical criteria, especially related to brain/nerve health and seizure risk.
