Movement and Music Intervention for Individuals With Dementia
September 11, 2020 updated by: Deb Kegelmeyer, Ohio State University
The goal of the study is to learn about how possible benefits of movement and music for individuals with dementia.
Individuals with dementia will participate in a dance class.
The study includes assessments of walking, balance and cognition.

Detailed Description
Dementia impacts 5%-7% of individuals >60 years old.
It impacts the person's ability to perform work, care for him/herself and ultimately leads to physical disability.
There is a high caregiver burden associated with dementia and many individuals require care in a long-term care facility.
There is some emerging evidence that music based interventions may have a protective effect on the brain in those with dementia.
There is also evidence that doing activities that engage the brain through music are beneficial.
This study seeks to investigate the potential benefits of a music based intervention for individuals with dementia.
The study aims to recruit individuals with a diagnosis of dementia.
Once enrolled participants will undergo assessment of walking, balance and cognition and then be asked to participate either in a dance class or to listen to live music.
After 6 weeks and again at the end of the study (after 12 weeks) participants will undergo assessments of walking, balance and cognition.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Timed up and go Cognitive
Time Frame: 12 weeks
|
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 Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in Score on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment
Time Frame: 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.
|
12 weeks

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in Score on the Caregiver Burden Scale
Time Frame: 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.
