VR brain training for older adults with mild memory and health issues
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial uses virtual reality exercises to see if they can help improve brain function in older adults who have some memory concerns and physical frailty. Researchers want to know if a fun, interactive VR program can strengthen connections in the brain and improve daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 years of age or older.
- You have some physical frailty (like feeling weak or tired easily) and notice your memory or thinking is not as sharp as it used to be.
- You do not have a diagnosis of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or other serious brain conditions like a past head injury or epilepsy.
- You are not taking medications or substances that affect your thinking or memory.
- You are able to safely participate in light physical activity (like standing or walking) and do not have severe joint pain, heart problems, or other conditions that would prevent this.
- You do not have severe motion sickness or inner ear problems that make you dizzy.

This trial tests if using virtual reality (VR) brain training before surgery can help protect memory and thinking skills in older adults with small vessel disease in the brain. If you are 60 or older, have this condition, and are having non-heart, non-brain surgery under general anesthesia, this study may be for you.
This trial tests if virtual reality (VR) cognitive training before surgery can help prevent postoperative delirium (sudden confusion) in older adults with cerebral small vessel disease (a condition affecting small blood vessels in the brain). If you're 65 or older, have this brain condition, and are having non-cardiac surgery, you may be eligible.
This study tests whether virtual reality (VR) brain-training games can help improve memory and thinking in older adults who have mild memory problems but not dementia. You would use a VR headset to do fun exercises that challenge your brain.
This study tests whether a virtual reality program that combines thinking exercises and movement can help people with early memory problems or cognitive concerns. Researchers want to see if it's easy to use, helpful, and something people would actually want to do.
This trial uses virtual reality (VR) and AI agents to test if a fun, multi-dimensional activity can boost thinking and memory in older adults. It might be a good fit for you if you're interested in technology and can do light physical exercise like pedaling a bike.
This trial tests whether using 360-degree virtual reality videos during aerobic exercise can improve thinking and memory in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. It's a chance to try a new approach that combines exercise and immersive technology.
