Trial Outcomes & Findings for Movement and Music Intervention for Individuals With Dementia (NCT NCT03121950)

NCT ID: NCT03121950

Last Updated: 2020-09-16

Results Overview

The change in time to complete the Timed Up and Go - Cognitive (TUG-Cog) is recorded in seconds. The participant is timed with a stop watch while walking 3 meters turning and returning to a chair while performing a concurrent cognitive task. This time is compared to the Timed Up and Go (TUG) and the difference in time indicates the effect cognitive deficits have on motor function. Higher scores, indicating more time, means worse outcomes.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is an assessment of overall cognitive status. The range of scores is 0-30, with higher scores indicating better outcomes. Scores 26 or higher indicates normal cognitive function.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks

A questionnaire asking caregivers about the impact of caregiving on daily life. Scores range from 0-88, with higher scores indicating worse outcomes or more burden. Scores of 0-20 = little or no burden, 21-40 = mild to moderate burden, 41-60 = moderate to severe burden, and 61-80 = severe burden.
