What this Trial Is About
This international multicentre pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate the effectiveness of personalized, home-based cognitive-motor training using exergames in improving cognitive and motor functions in frail adults. A total of 344 frail participants from five European countries will be enrolled. Participants in the intervention group will engage in a personalized exergame program, while the control group will follow the Otago Exercise Program. Both groups will undergo 12 weeks of training. The primary outcome is balance, a critical component of functional independence and fall prevention, and a common denominator affected in both physical and cognitive frailty. Secondary outcomes including cognitive and motor fall-risk factors, fall incidence, cost-effectiveness, and psychosocial outcomes.
