The Effect of Dual Task Training on Cognitive in Alzheimer's Disease
Sponsor: Fenerbahce University
Summary
This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of dual-task training on cognitive functions in patients with Alzheimer's disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a dual-task training group or a conventional exercise group. The intervention will last 8 weeks, with three supervised sessions per week.

Interventions
Dual-Task Motor-Cognitive Training
Participants assigned to this group will undergo dual-task motor-cognitive training, which combines physical exercises with simultaneous cognitive tasks. Sessions will last 45-60 minutes, three times per week, for 8 weeks. Exercises will include gait and balance activities performed while engaging in cognitive tasks such as arithmetic, memory recall, or word association.
Conventional Exercise Training
Participants in this group will receive a conventional exercise program focusing on strength, flexibility, and balance without a cognitive component. Sessions will last 45-60 minutes, three times per week, for 8 weeks, and will be supervised by a physiotherapist.
