Filter by:A Single-Center, Open Label Study to Assess the Efficacy of Cognitex in Elderly Subjects with Memory Impairment
The purpose of the study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of 2 dose levels of LX6171 given over 28 days in patients with Age Associated Memory Impairment (AAMI).
The study is designed to collect data regarding the clinical course and outcome of patients suffering from memory disorders. Visits are charged to the individual's insurance inclusive of Medicare. Patients benefit from expert evaluation and treatment recommendations. Participants may be eligible for participation in experimental treatments in the future.
The purpose of this study was to explore in a more documented way the relative potential and efficacy of piracetam 9600 and 4800 mg daily.
Geriatric patients have a high risk of developing postoperative cognitive deficits. Hypothetical causes are insufficient intraoperative cerebral perfusion or drugs that are administered in the perioperative setting. This study will investigate the role of these two factors in patients aged 65 or older undergoing elective surgical procedures under general aesthesia. Non-invasive techniques will be used to monitor intraoperative cerebral perfusion and anticholinergic activity in the patient's blood is determined. Data will be compared to those of a young (20-40 year old) group of patients undergoing elective surgical procedures using an identical anesthetic technique. A second control group of healthy volunteers older than 65 will be investigated to quantify practice effects with repeated testing of cognitive functions.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the evolution of memory deficit (verbal episodic memory, procedural memory, working memory, short-term memory) in Sleep Apnea Obstructive Syndrome (SAOS) patients after treatment by Continuous Positive Airway Pressure treatment (CPAP). For thus, we will compare memory tests in two separate groups of SAOS patients with "effective " versus "ineffective" ( or sham) CPAP, before and 6 weeks after the beginning of the treatment. Thus we will assess the evolution of memory deficit, the effectiveness of the treatment on the evolution of memory deficit before and 6 weeks after the beginning of the treatment by "effective " versus "ineffective" CPAP. We feel the results of the tests of memory will show greater memory disorders in patients with SAOS before beginning the treatment rather than six weeks afterwards. Thus we hypothesise that, after the treatment by "effective" CPAP, the patients with SAOS will have greater improvement of their memory disorders than those treated by "sham CPAP".
The primary objective of this trial is to assess the ability of an oral administration of Phosphatidylserine-Omega3 to improve attention and memory complaints in comparison to placebo in age associated memory impaired subjects.
The purpose of the study is to determine if participation in an exercise program helps memory loss from getting worse, and if it improves daily functioning and attitudes of those with probable Alzheimer's disease. It will involve participation of both the person with memory loss and someone who knows their daily activities (e.g., husband, wife, adult child, or caregiver).
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects and cost-effectiveness of a Diagnostic Observation Center for PsychoGeriatric patients (DOC-PG). Our main hypothesis is that DOC-PG has added value compared with usual care regarding Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL).
The investigators hypothesize that continuous active interaction with environments that are demanding to sensory, cognitive, and motor systems, together with imbedded rewards for successful performance, will help improve memory and cognitive functioning in patients suffering from "chemobrain".
