NCT ID NCT03208491
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether special video games (serious games) that combine physical and mental exercises are a good value for managing Alzheimer's disease. About 136 people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's will either play these games with a therapist or receive usual care. Researchers will compare costs and quality of life to see if the games are worth using more widely.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that serious games are a cost-effective way to help manage Alzheimer's symptoms and improve quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a mid-stage economic study, not a treatment trial. The games may not provide meaningful benefits, and results may not apply to all patients or care settings.
