NCT02044887

Brief Summary

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of an intervention in Primary Health Care to increase the physical activity (PA) and improve cognitive state and cardiovascular risk in patients with dementia and their relative caregivers. The results can be used to improve the technical characteristics of the devices that record the physical activity of patients with dementia make marketing easier

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Physical activity (podometer and 7-Day PAR) in patients and caregivers

    The main measure will be the assessment of PA (podometer and 7-Day PAR) in patients and caregivers.

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • ADAS-cog, functional degree and cardiovascular risk

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

INTERVENTION

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive instructions to do physical activity with an adapted physical activity program. This program will be designed and applied by Primary Health Care professionals in patients with dementia and caregivers.

Other: physical activity

Control

NO INTERVENTION

The control group will receive regular care.

Interventions

The characteristics of the PCD and CF and motivation will be evaluated to increase the AF through the (Test Prochaska-Diclemente). For 3 months will receive instructions to perform AF autonomously (walking, preferably in the vicinity of the place of residence). The intervention will be conducted by a professional of the health center so only couples of the intervention group will have knowledge of the specific recommendations of the AFISDEMYF. It is an intervention that has demonstrated its effectiveness in the PEPAF study (large, Sanchez et al. 2009) adapted, designed and implemented by primary care professionals for patients with dementia and for family members who care for them.

Also known as: physical activity with an adapted physical activity program, PEPAF

  • identification of family members, or friends (not professional caregiver), who provide most of the care to the PCD.
  • completion of informed consent on the part of the caregiver (and PCD) where appropriate.
  • the PCD does not take drugs that may negatively affect cognitive function during the period of intervention.

You may not qualify if:

  • the caregiver dissent to participate in the trial.
  • participants who submit any psychological or general medical condition which in the opinion of the investigator may impede the fulfilment of the questionnaires in the Protocol
  • participants who are participating at the time of the start of the study in a clinical trial or study with medications.
