Brief Summary:
The need to promote research in active aging trough multidisciplinary and innovative approaches is strongly indicated by the European Union. Our study aims to assess the feasibility and provide a preliminary measure of effectiveness for an intervention using immersive virtual reality (VR) technology for cognitive remediation (CR) in individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)
Detailed Description:
The European Union emphasizes the need to promote research in active aging trough multidisciplinary and innovative approaches, addressing challenges related to neurodegenerative diseases in old adults. Our study aims to assess the feasibility and provide a preliminary measure of effectiveness for an intervention using immersive virtual reality (VR) technology for cognitive remediation (CR) in individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI).
Methods: A feasibility randomized controlled clinical trial will involve 30 individuals who are over 65 years old, both sex, who have received the diagnosis of MCI, randomly assigned to experimental condition or control group. Both groups will continue to receive standard pharmacological therapy (TAU). The experimental group will undergo a 3-months cognitive remediation program with fully immersive VR with two sessions per week (each session of sixty minutes). The control group will continue with TAU.
Feasibility will be assessed based on tolerability, including dropout rates and acceptability, (proportion of recruited participants among those considered eligible) and side effects. The preliminary measures of effectiveness will be evaluated on cognitive functions, quality of life, biological and social rhythms, anxiety and depressive.
