Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate if Uricap Female, an uridome for women, can be used instead of traditional incontinence aids to treat urinary incontinence (UI) among women 75 years and older.
This study is an effectiveness trial investigating neurofeedback (NFB) in adults with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions - i) NFB, or ii) wait list. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, our study will, primarily, take place online (i.e., online assessment and treatment, with option of in-person fMRI, or functional magnetic resonance imaging, scans). NFB sessions will be conducted from home, with videoconferenced supervision by research staff. After study completion, individuals in the wait list condition will be offered the same NFB treatment.
This is a single-center, blinded, placebo-controlled pilot RCT evaluating corticosteroids for the treatment of Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) that will enroll 100 adults hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia. The primary goal is to assess the feasibility of proposed trial procedures for use in a subsequent phase III trial powered on 6-month cognitive outcome (MOCA-Blind score). Key outcomes are six-month cognitive and functional status, duration and severity of symptoms, and mortality.
The investigators aim to explore the effect of puzzle mobile or tablet-based games on problem-solving impairment resulting from a first-time stroke. This is a randomized-controlled trial with the intervention arm consisting of puzzle gaming applications and the control arm consisting of stroke-relevant educational videos provided and encouraged throughout the course of participants' acute inpatient rehabilitation stay.
This study will evaluate the effect of a manualized treatment (Goal Management Training, or GMT) on the cognitive impairments associated with PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), as well as any impact on PTSD symptems themselves. Participants will be randomized to either GMT group treatment, or a wait list condition.
The purpose is to investigate the COVID-19 prevalence, associated morbidity and long-term cognitive deficits in consecutive patients presenting with acute neurological symptoms
The aim of our study is the analysis of sleep phases and quality as well as the detection of respiratory pauses in subjects with cognitive disorder. To assess whether sleep quality is associated with the blood-brain barrier and Alzheimer's disease, which may be indicative of an early, non-invasively measurable change in brain activity in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease.
Evaluate cognitive improvement pre amd post acupuncture treatment in patients with probable alzheimer's dementia as measured by MOCA score and also per form A( measure of patient's personal information). Also caregiver input.
According to 2011 HAS recommendations, early detection of Alzheimer disease is the major objective in order to allow an earlier care and support. These recommendations strengthen general practitioner role, who plays a key role in the identification of cognitively impaired patients. HAS recommendations are the use of MMSE like test (Mini Mental State Examination) at general practitioner office. A self-screening test, without medical presence, would allow a self-administered cognitive assessment by the patient. A review of the literature about self-administered cognitive tests has been realized. The Self-Administered Gerocognitive Examination (SAGE) has been chosen. It is a brief, valid and reliable cognitive assessment tool, rated on 22 points, which allows an early detection of cognitive impairment, with a sensitivity close to the MMSE test. Nevertheless, SAGE has never been tested at home without medical supervision. In this study, the investigators will determine if SAGE scores at home correlates with MMSE scores at general practitioner office. Patients with inclusion criteria will be recruited during the general practitioner consultation and will have a clinical assessment included MMSE and clinical data collection. Then, SAGE will be given to the patient in order to be completed at home without medical supervision and send to the general practitioner.
Many hospitalizations or emergency room visits are due to problems of iatrogenic medication, especially in elderly patients who are very often polymedicated. Moreover, they are more at risk because of fragility. This has an important socio-economic impact. It therefore seems important to act upstream of these adverse events and a review of the drugs available in the homes of elderly patients seems a good starting point.
