Brief Summary:
The purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of overground walking as a part of a rehabilitation program on the increase in Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels, decrease in IL-6 levels, decrease in hs-CRP levels, improvement in cognitive function, and enhancement of quality of life (QOL) in older people with mild cognitive impairment. These findings are anticipated to contribute to the efforts to elevate BDNF levels, cognitive function, and QOL while reducing IL-6 and hsCRP levels in the elderly with mild cognitive impairment.
Detailed Description:
This research employs a quasi-experimental research design using a Pretest-Posttest Design approach. The Pretest-Posttest method is executed by assessing before and after the intervention within the same group.
All research subjects receive the same treatment, which involves participating in an overground walking program on a flat surface. The selected research subjects are provided with an explanation of the research's objectives and benefits and the exercise and examination procedures, then sign the informed consent.
Research subjects are instructed to walk on a flat surface for a distance of 15 meters, with a duration of 20 minutes, increasing by 5 minutes each week until the target heart rate is achieved during the exercise. After an 8-week post-intervention period, research subjects will undergo a follow-up examination.
