Effects of Exercise, Cognitive Training, and Their Combination in Institutionalized Older Adults

Официальное название

Effects of Physical Exercise Programs, Cognitive Stimulation, and Their Combination on Mobility, Cognitive Function, and Psychosocial Well-Being in Institutionalized Older Adults

Обзор

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if physical exercise, cognitive stimulation, or a combination of both can improve mobility, cognitive function, and psychosocial well-being in institutionalized older adults aged 65 and older. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does physical exercise improve strength, flexibility, balance, and mobility? * Does cognitive stimulation improve executive function and mental state? * Does combining both interventions provide greater benefits than either intervention alone? Researchers will compare the physical exercise group, the cognitive stimulation group, and the combined group to a control group that receives no active intervention to see which approach leads to the most improvement. Participants will: * Take part in either physical exercise, cognitive stimulation, or both, 3 times per week for 12 weeks * Complete assessments before the intervention, after 12 weeks, and again after 6 months * Answer questionnaires and perform physical and cognitive tests to measure changes in health and well-being

Вмешательства

• Поведенческое Physical Exercise Program
  Participants will complete supervised moderate-intensity physical exercise sessions three times per week for 12 weeks (totaling 150 minutes per week). The program includes balance, flexibility, strength, and mobility exercises designed according to WHO and ACSM guidelines for older adults. Sessions are delivered in small groups by trained physiotherapists.
• Поведенческое Cognitive Stimulation Program
  Participants will attend cognitive stimulation sessions three times per week for 12 weeks. Activities include memory games, attention tasks, puzzles, orientation exercises, and problem-solving strategies. The sessions are led by a psychologist and a trained social educator, in small groups.
• Поведенческое Combined Physical Exercise and Cognitive Stimulation
  Participants will receive both the physical exercise and cognitive stimulation interventions, conducted in parallel, over a 12-week period with three sessions per week. The combined program aims to improve physical and cognitive functions simultaneously and is delivered by a multidisciplinary team.
