Trial Outcomes & Findings for Maintaining Autonomy as we Age. Strategy Training for Age-related Executive Dysfunction. (NCT NCT01163279)

NCT ID: NCT01163279

Last Updated: 2017-12-18

Results Overview

COPM is a standardized semi-structure interview in which participants identify goals related to everyday life activities. Goals considered improved to criterion are those that had 2 or more points increase on COPM ratings.

Participant Flow

Participants were recruited from a research subject pool and a community psycho-education program at Baycrest.

A total of 96 participants were assessed for study eligibility. 60 participants were excluded after a phone screening interview and 17 were excluded after a more detailed baseline assessment which included cognitive paper and pencil tasks. The remaining 19 participants were randomized to either the experimental arm or the control arm.

Measure
Cogntive Training
Real world strategy approach: The key features of the protocol are: i. Participants are actively engaged in selecting their treatment goals. The research clinician will work with the participants to identify five specific, measurable real-world goals using a standardized semi-structured interview, the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure. Three of these will be training goals, two will not be trained but evaluated post-intervention for evidence of generalization and transfer to non-trained tasks; ii. A global problem solving approach is used (Goal- Plan- Do- Check). Participants are guided by the trainer to apply this strategy to their goals.
Psychosocial Education
The active comparator was an information-based format and is designed to engage participants without providing any specific training techniques or strategies. During weekly sessions, participants received factual information on brain structure and function, age-related cognitive changes, and general brain health issues and spent time doing non-specific cognitive exercises including crossword and Sudoku puzzles. Homework consisted of reading assignments related to the session topics.
