Can a smartwatch and virtual coach help seniors fight off dementia?

NCT ID NCT06896825

Summary

This study is testing whether adding technology support to basic health education helps older adults who live alone and feel their memory is slipping to become more physically active. All 86 participants will get a fitness tracker and weekly goal reminders, but half will also get a study website and virtual coaching. Researchers want to see if the extra tech support leads to more activity, better social connections, and less stress, which may help lower the risk of developing dementia.
