Abstract

This study aimed to determine the interventions that resulted in delaying physical and cognitive decline in older population with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Thirty older adults diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment based on the Peterson criteria (mean age 73 years) consented to and completed a 12-week twice weekly exercise intervention.BR The SDST score showed a difference between pre and post-test in the group of ≥ 72 years. During TMT test, the score of reaction time in the group of ≥72 years was significantly faster than in the group of 72 years. During TMT B test, the score of reaction time in the ≥ 72 year group was significantly faster than in the 72 year group.BR These findings help to establish the beneficial effects of IoT based exercise and cognitive combined intervention and identify key areas for future research strategies in the continued effort to improve human cognition and delaying onset of dementia.
