Kinesthetic Exercises on Adults

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of this study is to determine the possible effect of kinesthetic brain exercises on cognitive function in patients with heart failure. The study will include 40 volunteer individuals aged 30-65 years who have been diagnosed with heart failure in the Cardiology Department and are followed up with a physiotherapy program. Individuals will be randomized into a kinesthetic brain exercise program group (n=20) and a control group (n=20). The control group will receive routine medication monitoring as well as a routine physiotherapy program. The education group will receive routine medication monitoring and a routine physiotherapy program, in addition to individual kinesthetic brain exercise training. Kinesthetic brain exercises will be performed for 30 minutes, 2 days a week for 8 weeks. Demographic information of the individuals will be collected; age, gender, body mass index, age at diagnosis, ejection fraction ratio, family history, smoking status (years/pack). Cognitive function; The Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA), quality of life using the Minnesota Heart Failure Living Questionnaire, and cognitive performance using the Standardized Minimental Test (SMMT) will be used for evaluation. Biochemical analyses will be performed using the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) ELISA kit. Patients in both groups will be evaluated by a physiotherapist before the study and at week 8.
