Exercises for mild memory and balance problems in older adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a program of exercises designed to improve both memory and balance in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. The goal is to help people remain independent and reduce the risk of falls.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You live independently or are active in a nursing home
- You have mild memory or thinking problems (not dementia)
- You can walk at least 10 meters with or without a cane
- You have enough vision and hearing (with glasses or hearing aids) to follow exercise instructions
- Your overall health is stable enough to participate in the exercise program

This study tests whether two simple exercise programs—one using gentle movements (Baduanjin) and one using stretchy bands—help improve visual working memory (the ability to remember what you see) in older adults with mild memory problems. You'll be asked to do one of these exercises regularly, and we'll see if your memory gets better.
This study tests a program of sensory integration training—gentle exercises that stimulate your senses (like balance, touch, and movement)—to see if it can improve memory and thinking in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. If you join, you'll take part in guided activities aimed at keeping your brain sharp.
This trial tests whether a specific exercise program can improve physical and mental decline (frailty) in people with mild cognitive impairment. If you join, you may get a structured exercise plan that could help your thinking and physical strength.
This trial tests if a supervised exercise program can improve thinking skills and daily function in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help slow memory decline and keep you independent longer.
This trial tests a type of training that challenges you to do two tasks at once to help with thinking and movement. It is for people over 55 who may have mild memory problems but do not have major brain, heart, or lung conditions.
This study tests if combining two types of exercise (LSVT Big and dual-task training) can improve balance and thinking in older adults with mild to moderate memory loss. It may help you stay steady on your feet and manage everyday tasks more easily.
