What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether a program of high-amplitude functional exercises combined with cognitive tasks can improve balance and mobility in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. Participants aged 65 and older will be randomly assigned to either this dual-task exercise program or a traditional balance and mobility routine, attending sessions four times a week for four weeks. Researchers will measure changes in balance, walking, dual-task performance, fear of falling, and independence in daily activities to see if the dual-task approach offers added benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
A dual-task-based high-amplitude functional exercise program
What this could lead to
If effective, this exercise approach could offer a simple, drug-free way to improve balance and reduce fall risk in older adults with mild cognitive impairment.
What could go wrong
The trial is small (36 participants) and short (4 weeks), so results may not be generalizable. Exercise programs require adherence, and benefits may not persist long-term.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 36 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Aug 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Apr 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Living independently/actively in a nursing home. * Diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) based on a standardized screening test, with a Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score of 18-25. * Ability to walk independently for at least 10 meters without an assistive device or with only a cane/single-point support. * Sufficient vision and hearing capacity to follow dual-task instructions and exercise directions, which may be corrected with glasses or hearing aids. * Stable medical condition that does not prevent participation in the exercise program throughout the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Diagnosis of dementia or severe cognitive impairment based on cognitive screening (MoCA \<17). * Neurological conditions that primarily affect balance, such as Parkinson's disease, residual effects of stroke, multiple sclerosis, or cerebellar ataxia. * Severe osteoarthritis, active inflammatory joint disease, or a history of major orthopedic surgery within the previous 6 months that could limit exercise performance. * Uncontrolled hypertension, heart failure (NYHA Class III-IV), or cardiopulmonary instability causing symptoms during exercise. * Advanced vestibular pathology or severe loss of proprioception in the lower extremities that could be the primary cause of balance impairment.
