Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to compare to investigate the effect of dual task performance on straight and curved walking in elderly people with mild cognitive impairment. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dual task performance on the activity of the prefrontal cortex in the elderly with mild cognitive impairment during straight and curved walking. - The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dual task performance on gait speed during straight and curved walking in elderly people with mild cognitive impairment. Participants will: For mild cognitive impairment 65 and older who can do dual tasks. - single task (motor task) : an exercise task, which will perform a 10-meter walking test and a figure-eight walking test. - double task (motor task + cognitive task) : planned to perform a motor task and a cognitive task together. The cognitive task is scheduled to be a simple calculation problem so that it can be performed without great difficulty while walking.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of different dual-task practices on activities of daily living in stroke patients. The sample size was calculated as 18 people for each group and 36 people in total, with a 20% drop out. MC (Motor - Cognitive) group will receive 60 minutes motor - cognitive dual task intervention 5 day per week for 6 weeks in clinic. MM (Motor - Motor) group will receive 60 minutes motor - motor dual task intervention 5 day per week for 6 weeks in clinic. As the primary outcomes in the study; Modified Barthel Index will be used to evaluate basic activities of daily living, Nottingham Extended Activities of Daily Living Index designed specifically for stroke to evaluate instrumental activities of daily living, and Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 to evaluate participation in activities of daily living. As secondary outcomes; 10 Meter Walk Test will be used for functional mobility assessment, Timed Up and Go Test and Berg Balance Scale will be used for balance assessment, Motor Activity Log-28 will be used to assess upper extremity functions, and Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test will be used for cognitive status assessment.
Swallow and dual-task are a current issue and there are few studies on this subject. These studies have shown that as a result of dual-task interaction, swallowing is affected by attention and cognitive capacity, and dual-task negatively affects swallowing performance. But, studies include simple cognitive tasks and are not suitable for daily living activities. There is no study that compares all visual, auditory and motor dual tasks during swallowing and considers the effects on liquid, thick and solid foods similar to daily living activities. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of visual, auditory and motor dual-task on swallowing and chewing function in healthy young adults. As a result of the study, the dual-task that has the most impact on swallowing and chewing function will be determined, and visual, auditory and motor performance changes will be revealed as well as swallowing and chewing functions. It is planned that the results obtained will guide the rehabilitation of swallowing disorder with further studies on dual-task exercises.
If a subject agrees to participate, the primary investigators will collect some basic information including age, height, and weight. Intake of some general questions regarding health and each subject will complete some tests that measure walking speed, cognition, and balance. During these tests participants will be asked to stand from a chair, walk up & down a staircase, walk over objects in a forward, backward, and sideways directions, walk around objects in forward and backward directions. After completing those tests, participants will be asked to repeat them while doing another task such as counting out loud, naming objects, or passing an object from one hand to another. At the end of the day, a step counter will be attached to each subject's ankle and you asked to wear it when awake for the next 7 days. Investigators expect that the evaluation will last 1 hour. After 7 days, subjects will return the step counter to the researchers and begin the exercise classes. The exercise classes will occur 2 days per week for 8 weeks. In the class participants will be asked to perform gentle exercises and use memory to improve brain functioning. Each class is expected to last 1 hour. At the conclusion of the exercise classes, investigators will again perform the gait, balance and cognitive tasks as we did before each started the class. Once a subject finishes all the exercise classes and testing, investigators will call one every week to see if you have had any falls at home. The calls will go on for 6 months.
In this study, reference values for the five basic functional tests that are commonly used, with and without the addition of dual-task activity, will be determined. It will be ensured that healthy normative data that researchers and clinicians can compare in determining the effects in different pathologies by using easy-to-perform evaluations. The aim of this study is to determine the reference values performed with and without dual-task of the five functional tests for young adults according to age and gender by considering the interaction between both mobility and cognitive tasks.
After developing and pilot testing the training program, including the CogBals software, a 3-arm, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial is used to recruit 81 participants and then randomly allocated to the cognitive and balance dual task training group (COG&BAL), the balance training group (BAL), and the treatment as usual group. The first two training groups (COG&BAL, BAL) receive training for 60 minutes in a group format, 2 times weekly, for 12 weeks. All participants will be assessed at baseline and posttest. The primary outcome is balance function and secondary outcomes are cognitive functions and the muscular endurance of lower extremities.
Aging is a dynamic process that affects motor and cognitive functions. Activities of daily living and functionality, including dual task performance, are also negatively affected by these functions. The purpose of this study is to determine of balance training with dual task on cognitive function and functionality.
The aim of our study is to examine the relationship between dual task and physical and psychosocial factors in female patients with fibromyalgia. We will perform Dual Task Test, 6 min Walking Test, the Baecke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire, Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20, Tracking Test, General Self-Efficacy Scale the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, the Revised FM Impact Questionnaire, the Social Support Scale.
Dual task performances may be impaired with the impairment in motor performance and cognitive functions due to aging. The aim of the present study is to investigate the gender differences in dual task performance. A total of 82 community dwelling older adults (41 males and 41 females) aged between 65 and 75 years were included in the study. Motor performance was evaluated with sit-to-stand test, the timed up and go test, 10 m walking test and cognitive functions were evaluated with Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test. Dual task performances were evaluated as motor-motor and cognitive-motor performance.
This study was conducted to compare the cognitive skills, dual-task and physical activity status of individuals who play problem video games and healthy individuals, and to determine how much these skills are affected. The cognitive skills of individuals with video game playing problems and the control group were evaluated with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test, the Trail Making Test A & B sections, and the Stroop test. I evaluated dual tasks with 10-meter walking test (single-double task) and Time Up and Go Test (single-double task). Physical activity levels were evaluated by International Physical Active Questionnaire. The average cognitive skills, dual tasks, and physical activity levels of the individuals in both groups were compared.
