Participation Criteria
Eligibility Criteria
Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Description
General inclusion criteria:
- Adults aged 65 and older, residing in New York Metropolitan area who plan to be in area for next three or more years.
- Able to speak English at a level sufficient to undergo our assessment battery.
- Ambulatory. Participants are classified as 'non-ambulatory' if they are unable to leave the confines of their home and attend a clinic visit. These include participants who are bed-bound as a result of severe medical illness or those who require assistive medical devices (respiratory support or ventilators) that cannot be transported or those who cannot complete our mobility protocols. We will not exclude participants who use walking aids (canes, crutches) for ambulation. Participants who require walking aids to walk outside but are able to complete our mobility protocols without an assistive device or the assistance of another person will not be excluded.
General exclusion criteria (one or more criteria):
- Presence of dementia as defined as a score of ≥ 2 on the Alzheimer's Disease 8 (AD8) or < 25 on The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). These cut scores and procedures have been validated in our and other aging studies.
- Serious chronic or acute illness such as cancer (late stage, metastatic, or on active treatment), chronic pulmonary disease on ventilator or continuous oxygen therapy or active liver disease. Individuals with recent cardiovascular or cerebrovascular event (Myocardial Infarction, Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty, Coronary Artery Bypass Graft, or stroke) will not be excluded if they meet above inclusion criteria. Many of these chronic conditions are very common in older adults. Hence, mere presence of these conditions will not be used to exclude participants if well controlled or of mild severity and if participants are able to complete training and mobility tasks.
- Mobility limitations solely due to musculoskeletal limitation or pain (e.g., severe osteoarthritis) that prevent participants from completing mobility tests.
- Any medical condition or chronic medication use (e.g., neuroleptics) in the judgment of the screening clinician that will compromise safety or affect cognitive functioning or terminal illness with life expectancy less than 12 months.
- Progressive, degenerative neurologic disease (e.g., Parkinson's disease or ALS) diagnosed by study clinician or as per medical history.
- Presence of clinical disorders that overtly alter attention like delirium.
- Hospitalized in the past 6 months for severe illness or surgery that specifically affects mobility (e.g., hip or knee replacement) and that prevent participants from completing mobility tests or plans for surgery affecting mobility in the next 6 months.
- Severe auditory, visual, or somatosensory self-reported impairments. Visual acuity will be screened using a Snellen chart by the psychological assistant. Presence of neuropathy will be assessed using the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument.
- Active psychoses or psychiatric symptoms (such as agitation) noted during the clinic visit that will prevent completion of study protocols. Past history of these symptoms or presence of psychiatric illness not used as exclusion criteria.
- Living in nursing home.
- Participation in another intervention trial. Participants can participate in other observational studies.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Control
Placement into the intervention vs. control group is random, but dependent upon multisensory integration performance. Meaning, older adults who are enrolled and screened with good integration abilities on the CatchU test (aka: VSI + (good) integrators), (VSI = visual-somatosensory integration) will not be placed in either the intervention or control group since better visual-somatosensory integration performance has been linked to better cognitive and motor outcomes. These participants will be included in examination of additional study aims not related to the intervention. VSI - (poor) integrators, will be randomly assigned into either the intervention or control group to test the beneficial effect of the CatchU intervention. Participants in the Control arm will be monitored every two months via telephone surveys to determine falls history, but will not receive the CatchU intervention. |

Experimental: CatchU Intervention
Placement into the intervention vs. control group is random, but dependent upon multisensory integration performance. VSI - (poor) integrators, will be randomly assigned into either the intervention or control group to test the beneficial effect of the CatchU intervention. Participants in the Intervention arm will be monitored every two months to determine falls history, but will also receive the CatchU intervention which consists of physicians relaying individualized recommendations from the CatchU physician report to the participant, as well as providing the participant with falls intervention referrals and falls counseling. |
The CatchU Intervention arm will receive individualized recommendations (adapted from the CDC STEADI program) as outlined on the CatchU physician report sent to the participants physicians.
These recommendations in combination with falls intervention referrals and falls counseling tips will be monitored and statistical investigation of the impact of CatchU intervention in preventing future falls will be determined.

---|---|---|
Falls
Time Frame: 24 months
|
Information about falls (answers to questions regarding whether the participant has had a fall in the past 1 year or past 2 months after study enrollment) will be collected. If a fall is endorsed during the interview, further information regarding when and where the fall occurred and whether it led to a major injury or hospitalization will also be collected. The relationship of multisensory integration performance on CatchU with history of falls in the past year (baseline) and incident falls over a 24-month period post-baseline visit (collected bimonthly through telephone interviews) will be assessed using Cox proportional hazard models. Here we will look at fall presence (yes or no) and time to fall (or censor if no fall) relative to baseline enrollment date |
