NCT ID NCT07416799
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a 12-week home-based strength training program, supported by technology and telehealth, is practical for 20 adults aged 55-80 with type 2 diabetes and mild cognitive impairment. Participants will start with supervised sessions and gradually exercise on their own. The main goals are to see if people can stick with the program and find it acceptable, with secondary focus on balance improvements.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age: 55-80 years 2. Diabetes: Diagnosed T2DM with ≥5 years duration 3. Cognitive Status: Mild cognitive impairment as defined by Petersen criteria and confirmed by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores of 18-25 4. Medication Stability: Stable medication regimen for at least 3 months 5. Physical Capability: Physically capable of participating in moderate-intensity exercise (physician clearance required) 6. Support System: Having a caregiver or support person willing to assist with technology use if needed Exclusion Criteria: 1. Diagnosis of movement disorders such as multiple sclerosis, parkinson's disease 2. Diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, 3. Current diagnosis of severe depression, major psychiatric conditions such as bipolar disorder, psychosis, schizophrenia, or alcoholism that could affect the ability to understand and/or cooperate fully with the protocol. 4.
