Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this project is to further develop and evaluate a computerized cognitive-training program designed to extend older adults' functional independence and reduce accidental falls (i.e., reduce factors that contribute to fall risk; including cognitive abilities/executive functions). This intervention may benefit a large population of vulnerable older adults with elevated fall risk and lack of long-term viable treatment options.


Clinical Trial Description

The investigators will employ a single arm study open label usability/feasibility study comprised of a computerized training program that targets core executive functions (working memory, inhibition), speed of processing and sustained attention, and is grounded on design principles that drive adaptive brain plasticity to improve cognitive function and bolster functional abilities in older adults with an elevated fall risk. ;
