About this trial
The goal of this study ifs to determine the comparative effects of Lee Silverman voice treatment Big and dual task training on balance, cognition and functional mobility in older adults with cognitive impairment.
Perform LSVT big four times in a week for about 4 months. Perform dual task training four times in a week for about 4 months. Complete assessments at baseline, the 4th, 8th, 12th weeks, and a follow-up at the 16th week.
Outcome measures include Mini BESTest, MoCA, stroop test and time up and go test. Statistical analyses will assess within-group and between-group effects based on data distribution.

Treatments tested in this trial
Lee Silverman treatment big
Other interventionHalf of the treatment sessions consist of standardized multidirectional whole-body movements performed with maximal amplitude of reaching and stepping. The second half is designed to address individual deficits in movement that occur in activities of daily living. Dosage: 4 consecutive days a week for 12 weeks (16 sessions in one month) for 60 minutes Repetitions: minimum 8-16 repetitions/task
Dual task training
Other interventionGroup B will receive cognitive motor dual task training for 60 minutes, 4 times a week for 12 weeks. The intervention include both motor and cognitive components.
Treatment groups
50 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groupsGroup A: Group A (LSVT BIG)Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Group B ( Dual task training)Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
Mini BESTest
It is a short form of the BESTest which include 14 items only. The Mini-BESTest includes asses aspects of dynamic balance control also and control while walking and performing a cognitive task.
Time frame
4th week2
MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment (For Cognition)
The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is cognitive screening tool which include 30 points. It measures visuospatial, short term memory, orientation, language, executive functioning along with attention/concentration/working memory.
Time frame
4th week3
Stroop test
The Stroop task is one of the most widely used measures of cognitive functioning. The Stroop test requires participants to name the color in which a presented word is printed. Numerous studies have shown that participants need more time to name ink colors of incongruent words than to name ink colors of control patches.
Time frame
4th week4
Time up and go test
Timed Up and Go (TUG) have been used in clinical settings as a measure of physical performance in older adults with and without cognitive dysfunction. This test requires people to stand up from a chair, walk 3 m, turn around, walk back to the chair, and sit down again.
