Cognitive and walking training for memory and mobility risk
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a combined brain and walking exercise program for older adults who have normal thinking but show early signs of thinking or memory problems and slower walking. The goal is to see if this training can improve memory and movement, and potentially prevent further decline.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 65 years of age or older
- Be able to speak English
- Have normal thinking and memory skills, without a dementia diagnosis
- Have a condition called motoric cognitive risk syndrome — which means you have some memory complaints and walk more slowly than is typical for your age, but your thinking is still normal
- Be willing to participate in the study and give your consent
- Not have unstable chronic health problems, active mental health conditions, or severe hearing, vision, or movement problems that would limit walking
