The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of a mobile-based multidomain application, Silvia Program, on cognitive functioning of residents in assisted living facilities (ALFs).
Pilot randomized controlled trial using a two-group pretest-posttest design.
Twenty participants living in ALFs were randomized to a Silvia group or usual care group. Silvia group received mobile-based Multidomain lifestyle intervention for 50-60 min, twice weekly, for 12 weeks. We assessed the cognitive functioning using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA).
Results are that the total MoCA scores of the Silvia group showed significant improvement while the total scores of the control group declined.
The present study provides suggestive evidence for an overall positive effect of the use of the Silvia Program on the cognitive functioning among residents in ALFs.
本研究旨在测试基于移动设备的多领域应用程序“西尔维亚计划”对辅助生活设施（ALF）居民认知功能的疗效。
采用两组前后测设计的试点随机对照试验。
20名居住在ALF的参与者被随机分为西尔维亚组或常规护理组。西尔维亚组接受基于移动设备的多领域生活方式干预，每周两次，每次50 - 60分钟，共12周。我们使用蒙特利尔认知评估量表（MoCA）评估认知功能。
结果显示，西尔维亚组的MoCA总分有显著改善，而对照组的总分下降。
本研究为使用西尔维亚计划对ALF居民认知功能产生总体积极影响提供了提示性证据。
