Tablet-based Cognitive Training
Can a Serious Game-based Cognitive Training Attenuate Cognitive Decline Related to Alzheimer's Disease
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 10 Jan 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Today the therapy options for dementia due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) are limited. One recommended intervention is cognitive stimulation. We try to develop serious games as a further treatment option, also usable in pre-dementia as well as early stages of dementia and for a long period of time. The main objective of this study is to test, if the computerized-cognitive training (CCT) is able to improve the performance in a score quantifying an "AD-specific" component score. Additionally, the neurobiological effects of the training are investigated.
