| Popis: | Normal ageing cause alterations in the prefrontal cortex, medial temporal lobe system, hippocampus and cerebellum. These changes are the cause of mild cognitive impairment in terms of decreased memory function, reduced speed and executive functions, personality and behavioral disturbances. Computer-based cognitive training is a new tool used for cognitive rehabilitation. This randomized control trial includes 50 subjects, Group A received computer-based cognitive training (n=25) by using BrainHQ app and Group B received Tradition cognitive training (n=25) for 3 weeks. Montreal cognitive assessment (MOCA) was taken as outcome measure. The comparison of difference of pre and post MOCA score between Group A and Group B shows p=0.002. Also comparison of MOCA score between male and female of group A shows statistically significant difference with respect to MALE P=0.008 and FEMALE P=0.000.This study provides a strong evidence that Computer Based Cognitive Training showed added improvements in cognition function compared to traditional training. |
