Részletes leírás
Computerized cognitive training has the advantage of easy accessibility for community-dwelling elderly. It can be much cheaper than traditional neuropsychological training methods, which require trained neuropsychologists. Furthermore, it may be more fun and easier to be optimized to an individual patients' cognitive status than other traditional methods.
Clinical efficacy of these kinds of cognitive training applications has been validated through several studies. A recent systematic review reported that the domains of working memory, executive function, and processing speed benefited the most by classic computerized cognitive training tasks, and that these benefits were comparable with traditional cognitive training methods. Apart from neuropsychological data, neuroimaging studies focusing on the effectiveness of computerized cognitive training are scant.
There have been no previous studies investigating the possible neural substrates of computerized cognitive training using multimodal neuroimaging modalities simultaneously. Thus, we aimed to investigate the effectiveness of computerized cognitive training and corresponding neural substrates in subjects with mild cognitive impairment, subjective memory impairment, and normal controls through a multimodal approach.

Intervention: Computerized Cognitive Training Apparatus

CoCoTA was developed through collaborative research with the Korean Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) and Primpo Co. Ltd. (www.primpo.com). It was designed to stimulate numerous cognitive domains simultaneously by using sounds and objects familiar to Korean elderly. Training themes and scenarios were developed and evaluated by six board-certified neurologists and three neuropsychologists who specialize in dementia. Each subject participated in a total of 24 sessions of cognitive training, which consisted of 40 minutes of training, twice per week. To assure the consistency of cognitive training, trained personnel stayed nearby the subjects to help throughout the training process.
