Impact of Yoga on Cognitive Function
A Pilot and Feasibility Study of a Yoga Intervention in Heart Failure Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Apr 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Mild cognitive impairment is highly prevalent in patients with heart failure and results in poor well-being and quality of life. While yoga has proven effective in promoting cognitive health in older adults through its gentle movements, controlled breathing, and meditation, its effects on patients with heart failure remain unknown. Therefore, this feasibility and pilot study plans to deliver a 12-week yoga intervention and test its effects on cognitive function in patients with heart failure and mild cognitive impairment.
