“…Eight RCTs were selected in accordance with the inclusion criteria [20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27]. In 6 of these trials, the patients were suffering from mild dementia [20,21,22,23,24,25] and only 1 trial also included patients with moderate dementia [25].…”

Background: The evolution of dementia depends on the underlying pathology, early diagnosis and the availability of effective treatment for some of the symptoms that interfere with the patients' or caregivers' quality of life. Even though there is no specific treatment to reverse dementia, some interventions such as reality orientation and skills training can retard cognitive impairment. Aim: To review existing scientific evidence regarding the efficacy of therapies included in the category of cognition-oriented approaches for people suffering from dementia. Methods: Papers were retrieved from several bibliographic databases (last publication date: 2009) with pre-specified selection criteria, data extraction and methodological quality assessment. Results: Nine reality orientation and 8 skills training trials were identified as meeting the inclusion criteria. Conclusions: Stimulation of cognitive functions, especially by means of reality orientation, improves overall cognitive function in patients suffering from dementia.

“…While early versions of CT tended to be delivered in an inflexible 'one size fits all' approach, technological developments are leading to increasing tailoring of training focus based on individual cognitive profile and adaptive difficulty level in recent years ( (Neely 2009;Quayhagen 1995a;Quayhagen 2000). Initially delivered mainly in paper-and-pencil formats, computerised cognitive training (CCT) programmes have largely replaced more traditional methods over the past two decades (Davis 2001;de Vreese 1998;Quayhagen 1995;Quayhagen 2000). In some cases, the tasks or activities which form the focus of practice/training are analogues of actual daily activities, such as doing online shopping or setting up a dinner table (Farina 2002;Loewenstein 2004;Neely 2009;Zanetti 1994;Zanetti 1997;Zanetti 2001), and in these cases the distinction between cognitive training and functional skills training becomes more difficult.…”

“…In existing longitudinal studies, investigators have tracked the progression of untreated individuals (e.g., Morris et al, 1993;Ripich, Fritsch, Ziol, & Durand, 2000;Tomoeda & Bayles, 1993). The few studies that report positive effects from direct interventions (Camp et al, 1995;Clare et al, 2000;Hopper, Bayles, & Tomoeda, 1998;Mahendra, 2001;Quayhagen, Quayhagen, Corbeil, Roth, & Rodgers, 1995) are short-term.…”

This article describes a comprehensive cognitive-linguistic intervention program for mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients that provided communication skills practice in the context of health-enhancing and esteem-building community-based activities: physical fitness training and supervised volunteer work. The interventions were administered by undergraduate students who completed academic work, received faculty supervision, and earned three credits for one semester of participation. Effects of the interventions on the discourse of four participants who completed all 4 years of the program are reported in detail. The maintained or improved performance on multiple discourse outcome measures provides powerful rationale for making such interventions more widely available and preliminary support for their effectiveness in preserving communicative function. An additional role for speech-language pathologists (SLPs)-as trainers and supervisors of non-professional rehab partners for persons with dementia-is proposed. Learning outcomes: From this article, participants will be able to (1) list specific language tasks that can be used to assess discourse in individuals with AD; (2) identify several cognitive-linguistic interventions appropriate for use with AD patients; and (3) understand how long-term cognitive-linguistic interventions may affect the language performance of individuals with AD. #
