NCT02920632.
Methods | RCT (ongoing) of online cognitive training (COGTIPS ‐ COGnitive Training In Parkinson Study) vs online cognitive training of games that incorporate cognitive activities |
Participants |
Exclusion criteria: indications for a dementia syndrome, measured by the self‐administered Gerocognitive Examination (score < 14) or the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (score < 22). |
Interventions | 8‐week training (COGTIPS) ‐ training contains several games that are designed to train cognitive functions; 3 times a week for 45 minutes Control group receives online gaming cognitive activities. |
Outcomes | Primary outcome: executive function measured by the Tower of London Secondary outcomes: subjective cognitive complaints measured by the PD‐CFRS; executive function measured by the Stroop colour‐word task, the Letter fluency task, and the Tower of London; risk reduction of PD‐MCI/Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) development at follow‐up Outcomes measured at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years. |
Notes | Although risk reduction of PD‐MCI/PDD development at follow‐up is an outcome for the study, participants may meet PD‐MCI criteria at baseline. Trial is ongoing. |
