“…When considering specific training types, aerobic and multicomponent physical training were shown to be beneficial training types ( Groot et al, 2015 ; Panza et al, 2018 ; Sanders et al, 2019 ; Law et al, 2020 ), while cognitively engaging training appears to have the strongest effect on cognition ( Lauenroth et al, 2016 ; Howes et al, 2017 ; Levin et al, 2017 ; Stanmore et al, 2017 ; Joubert and Chainay, 2018 ; van Santen et al, 2018 ; Stojan and Voelcker-Rehage, 2019 ; Wang et al, 2019 ; Wu et al, 2019 ; Biazus-Sehn et al, 2020 ; Chen et al, 2020 ; Gallou-Guyot et al, 2020 ; Mansor et al, 2020 ; Zhu et al, 2020 ; Gavelin et al, 2021 ). These findings are consistent with the ‘guided-plasticity facilitation’ framework ( Fabel and Kempermann, 2008 ; Kempermann et al, 2010 ; Herold et al, 2018 ): Acute physical exercise is assumed to enhance brain metabolism and promote neuroplastic processes, whereas these changes in brain plasticity are guided by cognitive stimulation ( Fabel and Kempermann, 2008 ; Kempermann et al, 2010 ; Joubert and Chainay, 2018 ).…”

Background: Utilizing information technology (IT) systems, for example in form of computerized cognitive screening or exergame-based (also called active videogames) training, has gained growing interest for supporting healthy aging and to detect, prevent and treat neurocognitive disorders (NCD). To ameliorate the effectiveness of exergaming, the neurobiological mechanisms as well as the most effective components for exergame-based training remain to be established. At the same time, it is important to account for the end-users’ capabilities, preferences, and therapeutic needs during the design and development process to foster the usability and acceptance of the resulting program in clinical practice. This will positively influence adherence to the resulting exergame-based training program, which, in turn, favors more distinct training-related neurobiological effects.Objectives and Methods: This methodological paper describes the design and development process of novel exergame-based training concepts guided by a recently proposed methodological framework: The ‘Multidisciplinary Iterative Design of Exergames (MIDE): A Framework for Supporting the Design, Development, and Evaluation of Exergames for Health’ (Li et al., 2020).Case Study: A step-by-step application of the MIDE-framework as a specific guidance in an ongoing project aiming to design, develop, and evaluate an exergame-based training concept with the aim to halt and/or reduce cognitive decline and improve quality of life in older adults with mild neurocognitive disorder (mNCD) is illustrated.Discussion and Conclusion: The development of novel exergame-based training concepts is greatly facilitated when it is based on a theoretical framework (e.g., the MIDE-framework). Applying this framework resulted in a structured, iterative, and evidence-based approach that led to the identification of multiple key requirements for the exergame design as well as the training components that otherwise may have been overlooked or neglected. This is expected to foster the usability and acceptance of the resulting exergame intervention in “real life” settings. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to implement a theoretical framework (e.g., the MIDE-framework) for future research projects in line with well-known checklists to improve completeness of reporting and replicability when serious games for motor-cognitive rehabilitation purposes are to be developed.

“…In addition to cognitive impairment, older adults often present with physical impairment [ 22 , 46 ], increasing the risk of falls and, in turn, leading to a loss of autonomy. However, the decrease in functional physical aptitude can be delayed by the practice of physical exercise [ 47 , 48 ].…”

“…Programs have been developed in recent years to increase cognitive and motor function in older adults with MCI [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ]. These interventions consist of exercise or multimodal programs, including exercise and cognitive stimulation, which are defined as interventions for people with dementia through providing a variety of enjoyable activities as well as an overall stimulus for thinking, concentration, and memory, usually in a social setting such as a small group [ 26 ].…”

“…The combination of cognitive and physical exercise (simultaneous cognitive-motor dual tasking) appears to have a greater benefit on cognitive and physical functions than one individual (either cognitive or physical) task training exercise in MCI [ 22 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ]. Combining physical training with cognitive training in a functional context may contribute to helping cognitively impaired older adults develop skills for everyday activities, fostering some autonomy [ 31 ].…”

Dementia patients are at high risk for the decline of both physical and cognitive capacities, resulting in an increased risk of the loss of autonomy. Exercise is regarded as a non-pharmacological therapy for dementia, considering the potential benefits of preventing cognitive decline and improving physical fitness. In this paper, we aim to describe the different design stages for an exercise program combined with cognitive stimulation for a population with mild cognitive impairment, i.e., the MEMO_MOVE program. Methods: The intervention design followed the Medical Research Council’s guidelines for complex interventions and was structured according to the six steps in quality intervention development (6SQuID). The intervention was described considering the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR). In order to establish the intervention characteristics, a literature review was conducted to collate and analyze previous work, which provided a summary the type of exercise that should be implemented among this population. Results: The MEMO_MOVE program was structured and described, regarding (i) inclusion of a cognitive stimulation component; (ii) the kind of cognitive stimulation; and (iii) the type of exercise, duration, frequency, intensity, and program length. Conclusions: A systematic step-by-step process design was followed to create a specific intervention to promote physical fitness and cognitive stimulation in individuals with mild dementia.

“…Dual-task training is being included in training-based rehabilitation programs, not only because the scientific literature reports positive effects [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18], but also because daily living requires the ability to perform multiple cognitive and physical tasks simultaneously. In this respect, dual-task training is seen as an approach to prepare patients for adequately returning to community living (e.g., household, family, work, or leisure) [18,49].…”

CogniViTra, a Digital Solution to Support Dual-Task Rehabilitation Training

This article focuses on an eHealth application, CogniViTra, to support cognitive and physical training (i.e., dual-task training), which can be done at home with supervision of a health care provider. CogniViTra was designed and implemented to take advantage of an existing Platform of Services supporting a Cognitive Health Ecosystem and comprises several components, including the CogniViTra Box (i.e., the patient terminal equipment), the Virtual Coach to provide assistance, the Game Presentation for the rehabilitation exercises, and the Pose and Gesture Recognition to quantify responses during dual-task training. In terms of validation, a functional prototype was exposed in a highly specialized event related to healthy and active ageing, and key stakeholders were invited to test it and share their insights. Fifty-seven specialists in information-technology-based applications to support healthy and active ageing were involved and the results and indicated that the functional prototype presents good performance in recognizing poses and gestures such as moving the trunk to the left or to the right, and that most of the participants would use or suggest the utilization of CogniViTra. In general, participants considered that CogniViTra is a useful tool and may represent an added value for remote dual-task training.
