Summary
This trial aims to test a new training program that combines movement and thinking tasks using virtual reality technology to improve walking and balance in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. The study will compare the effects of this
Who is the study for?
This trial is for older adults with mild cognitive impairment who have issues with walking and balance. Participants should be able to perform basic tasks independently but may be at risk of falls due to their condition.
What is being tested?
The study tests a new training that combines physical movement and thinking tasks using virtual/mixed reality, aiming to improve gait and balance. It compares this method against the standard care given for such conditions.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves VR/MR training, potential side effects might include dizziness or nausea related to motion sickness, fatigue from physical activity, or discomfort from wearing VR equipment.
