Multicomponent Exercise and Virtual Reality for Older Adults
Sponsor: European University Miguel de Cervantes
Summary
Population aging is associated with an increased risk of frailty, falls, and loss of autonomy. This pilot study aims to evaluate the effects of a program that combines multicomponent exercise and non-immersive virtual reality (MCE+VR-NI), compared with virtual reality alone (VR-NI) and usual treatment. The primary objective is to determine the program's impact on physical function, balance, cognition, and occupational participation in community-dwelling adults aged over 65 years.

Interventions
Multicomponent Exercise plus Non-Immersive Virtual Reality
Participants will undergo an 8-week multicomponent exercise program combined with non-immersive virtual reality (VR). Sessions will be conducted twice weekly (60 minutes each) and will include strength, balance, coordination, and functional mobility training, along with VR-based motor and cognitive stimulation using a non-immersive system. The intervention will be delivered in a supervised group setting.
Non-Immersive Virtual Reality
Participants will receive non-immersive virtual reality training for 8 weeks, with two supervised sessions per week (60 minutes each), focused on motor and cognitive stimulation.
