dementia, cognitive impairment
For people with mild dementia or mild cognitive impairment, the PrAISED intervention did not improve activities of daily living, physical activity, quality of life, or any other health status outcome, including balance and functional mobility in the 12 month period after randomisation. There may have been a small reduction in rate of falling (22% relative risk reduction, statistically uncertain), and improvement in some specific cognitive domains, in underpowered analyses, but these did not translate into functional gains. Delivery of the intervention was disrupted by restrictions due to the covid-19 pandemic.
