Combined Motor and Cognitive Training for Older Adults With Motoric Cognitive Risk Syndrome (CMC-training)

Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing204 enrolled

Overview

To investigate the effects of a combined motor-cognitive intervention on the improvement of motor as well as cognitive function in community residents.

Cognitive training uses systematically designed tasks that are difficulty-adaptive for cognitive domains such as attention, memory, and logical reasoning to improve individual cognitive functioning. Internet-based Adaptive Multi-Cognitive Domain Cognitive Training is conducted 3 times per week for 30 minutes each time, and includes tasks such as delayed memory, paired memory, and inverse numerical breadth. The exercise intervention was based on the M-Mobile multicomponent exercise program, in which older adults were instructed to complete exercise training at home at least three days per week. In all intervention groups, balance, sitting test and walking speed were assessed according to the Simple Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), and according to their scores, they were given exercise training, including flexibility, balance, aerobic training and resistance training.
