June 24, 2019 updated by: Marlene Rosa, Instituto Politécnico de Leiria

Effect of Ready2E.A.T. in Risk Populations

Program Ready2E.A.T. was developed to be tested in the upper limb reeducation on population at risk, such as:

  • Children with dysfunction
  • Cognitive impaired elderly
  • Dementia people

Detailed Description

Program Ready2E.A.T. consists on the training of specific upper limb tasks, including:

  • reaching during attention tasks
  • reaching during memory tasks
  • reaching during sequential motor tasks
  • reaching during fine hand movements

This program has been tested as a measure of functional status (cognitive and motor habilities) in population with different risks; It also has been tested as an effective program for reeducation in cognitive affected population.
