Computer Brain Training for Confusion in Older Adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a computer program to do brain exercises can help older adults recover from delirium—a state of confusion that sometimes happens after hospitalization. The goal is to see if this mental stimulation helps people think more clearly and recover faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You can give informed consent, or a family member or legal guardian can give it on your behalf
- You do not have severe vision or hearing problems, or language difficulties that would prevent you from doing the computer exercises

This study tests a special digital health program led by nurses to help prevent confusion and agitation (delirium) in older patients without using medicine. It might be a good fit if you are age 80+ and have several risk factors for delirium.
This study tests a computerized brain-training program that adapts to your performance, to see if it helps improve memory and thinking in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. If you join, you'll use a mobile app to do exercises that are personalized to your level.
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 special program can help your thinking and memory recover after a stroke that caused confusion (delirium). You may be able to join if you had a recent ischemic stroke, are 60 or older, and do not have dementia or a severe language problem.
