Evaluation of a Home-based AOMI Intervention on Cognitive Function and Depression Among Adults with SCI

Sponsor: The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The investigators propose a pilot randomized clinical trial to determine if adults with spinal cord injury (SCI) show improved cognitive function and depression following home-based Action Observation and Motor Imagery (AOMI) training. It is hypothesized that the home-based AOMI intervention will show satisfactory feasibility and acceptability. They also hypothesize that AOMI training can be used as a rehabilitative tool for improving cognitive function and depression in adults with SCI, because it engages and strengthens similar neural systems as actual exercise.
