Effect of Activities and Exercise on Sleep in Elderly Persons With Dementia

Dementia Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effect of Activities and Exercise on Sleep in Dementia

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine whether individualized social activities, physical resistance training and walking, and a combination of both are effective in improving nighttime sleep in elders with dementia.

Increased daytime individualized social activity and physical resistance training with walking have the potential to increase nighttime sleep in elders. This can lead to a better quality of life, a decrease in caregiver burden and decrease in nighttime falls for this population and associated fiscal savings.

Consent forms for this RCT, were written in large print, followed all the guidelines of the Institutional Review Board of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, and assured the participants that their participation in the study was voluntary. ;
