Summary

A 3-arm randomized controlled trial of multi-modal non-pharmacological Intervention for preventing the risk of dementia in Taiwanese geriatric people

Detailed description

This project proposes an intervention program for dementia prevention based on the Taiwanese model. The investigator(s) will screen the elderly who are not yet demented but are at high risk of dementia and will randomly allocate them into three groups (on site intervention group, remote intervention group, and control group) for a two-year multi-modal non-pharmacological intervention. All intervention groups will be actively involved in management with nutrition, exercise and cognitive programs. The on-site intervention group requires subjects to participate in prescribed place according to the protocol. The remote intervention group is designed for reducing the chances of person-to-person contact response to the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and development of digital internet. It uses innovative technology combining wearable devices with inertial measurement units, blue-tooth equipment, apps, feedback technology and artificial intelligence based remote comprehensive training programs. During the study period, each group will be regularly monitored the changes of cardiovascular risk factors, physical performance and cognitive function. The results of multimodal intervention mainly from Taipei and New Taipei City will establish the Taiwan FINGER model (TaiPEI) and will have the information of the conditions and feasibility achieved in Taiwan and implementation suggestions in the face of the epidemic. It can be subsequently applied to the brain/body health care institution and to the prevention of dementia and cardiovascular disease of elderly.
