Official title
Examination of a Novel Cognitive-motor Weight-bearing Dual-task Intervention in Older Adults
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study seeks to understand what factors influence the capacity to perform simultaneous motor and cognitive tasks in older adults to improve movement throughout their community with the least risk of injury. To function in the real world, one needs to "walk and talk", or to move about the community while attending to their environment. Navigating a busy environment becomes increasingly difficult due to the multitude of constraints placed on the organism by both the brain and the body that are associated with aging. Resulting lack of movement causes a downward spiral; further decreasing function and increasing risk of co-morbidities. This will impose an enormous cost on our healthcare system as the elderly population continues to grow in the United States. The investigators aim to investigate both cognitive and movement changes during aging to prevent declines in functional mobility. The investigators will do this through eight weeks training of simultaneous cognitive and motor tasks (cognitive-motor training).
