Summary

This completed trial tested whether a combination of physical activity (the Otago program) and cognitive training (using the CogniFit app) could improve sleep and quality of life in people over 65. Sixty-six participants were split into groups: one did the physical program, another added brain training, and a control group attended health talks. The study measured sleep using a wrist device and questionnaires, along with quality-of-life surveys.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Otago physical activity program and CogniFit cognitive training app
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, non-drug way for seniors to sleep better and improve their quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 66 participants. The results may not apply to everyone, and the program requires a smartphone and ability to exercise.
