Memory Training Using Movement for Early Alzheimer's Disease
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether learning memory strategies through physical movement and motor activities can help people with early Alzheimer's disease improve their memory. Researchers will compare people with early Alzheimer's to healthy older adults to see if this approach is effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Diagnosis of early-stage Alzheimer's disease confirmed by a neurologist or geriatrician
- Memory impairment that you are aware of, with an MMSE score of 21 or higher (a brief memory test)
- Age 60 or older
- French as your native language
- No uncorrected vision or hearing problems that would prevent you from participating
- No significant language or movement difficulties, and not currently taking medications that affect vision, language, or movement

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how “slower movement” and brain changes relate to memory and thinking problems in people with early dementia (and some related conditions). It may help researchers understand what brain differences go with these symptoms, using tests and an MRI scan.
This study tests whether doing two tasks at once (like walking while talking or counting) can help people with mild Alzheimer's disease improve their thinking and memory. You would take part in training sessions that combine physical movement with mental exercises.
This study looks at whether light-to-moderate physical activity (like walking or stretching) can help memory and thinking in middle-aged and older adults. People with normal thinking, mild memory problems, or Parkinson's disease may join if they aren't already very active.
This study tests a program that combines thinking exercises with physical movement to help older adults with mild memory problems. It aims to see if this type of training can improve both memory and physical function.
This study looks at how language, speech, and motor skills change in people with mild cognitive impairment (early memory problems) due to Alzheimer's disease, and in people with Alzheimer's disease. It also includes healthy older adults for comparison. The goal is to better understand these changes, which may help with earlier diagnosis.
This trial tests if imagining or watching movements can help improve motor skills in healthy older adults. It may offer a safe, no-exercise way to stay active.
