PEMOCS: effects of a concept-guided, PErsonalized, MOtor-Cognitive exergame training on cognitive functions and gait in chronic Stroke-a randomized, controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Motor-cognitive exergames may be beneficial for addressing both motor and cognitive residual impairments in chronic stroke, however, effective training schedules are yet to be determined. Therefore, this study investigates the effects of a concept-guided, personalized, motor-cognitive exergame training on cognitive functions and gait in chronic stroke survivors.

Methods

In this single-blind, randomized, controlled trial, stroke survivors (at least six-months post-stroke and able to perform step-based exergaming) were allocated either to the intervention (usual care + concept-guided, personalized, motor-cognitive exergame training) or the control group (usual care only). Global cognitive functioning was primarily targeted, while health-related quality of life (HRQoL),
