“…One noteworthy aspect is that almost all studies considered the use of cognitive-motor DT physical activity; some began with the use of motor-motor exercises, progressing to cognitive-motor 6,29 ; and finally some studies did not consider motor-motor DT exercises, but instead began directly with cognitive-motor DT exercises 31,32 .…”

“…Many determined that a fixed priority DT is performed, which means that the participant is asked to try to pay equal attention to both tasks 31 . In at least one of the studies, both groups did DT exercises, one with fixed priority and another with variable priority, finding greater improvement in those participants in the variable priority group 32 . We found two studies which had three groups, a control and two intervention groups, with DT activities with differentiated characteristics 6,26 to a lesser extent.…”

“…Most of the studies identified, quantified as outcome measures the gait performance of in DT [23][24][25][26][27][28] , and many in turn measured static and dynamic equilibrium with a variety of scales or measurements, including support on one foot 6,27,29 , Time Up and Go (TUG) 25,27,29,30 and the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), which was used by three studies 26,29,30 . Other scales, such as the Balance Evaluation System Test (BEST) 31 and the Tinetti scale 32 , were used to a lesser extent. Regarding the structure of the studies, all presented at least one group that performed cognitive-motor DT.…”

Considerable attention has recently focused on the role of dual-task exercises (DT) in the older adult. The aim was to conduct a review to describe the dual-task exercises that have been shown to be effective in improving balance and other physical characteristics such as decreased falling and walking speed in older adults. Review of intervention studies, in the Pubmed, PEDro, CINAHL and Web of Science databases. The search produced 498 references, 11 of which were identified with the description of the dual-task exercises, finding a wide variety of exercises, as well as great variability of outcome measures, discovering that the dual task is predominantly used for balance and walking speed training. All studies presented at least one group performing a double cognitive-motor task, some studies used the fixed priority modality in one group and variable in another, finding greater improvements in variable prioritisation. It can be said that dual-task training in older adults can improve balance and walking speed, which in turn reduces the risk of falling only if the planned dual-task training meets certain characteristics, such as training in specific concepts crucial in motor learning and dual-task training modalities.

The aim of the study was to assess the effects of an 8-week cognitive-motor training program on postural control and knee proprioception under single and dual-task conditions. Design: Randomized clinical trial. Methods: 20 healthy and physically active older adults (73.255.98 years) volunteered to participate and were randomly assigned into an experimental and a control group (EG and CG). Postural control was measured with the Romberg test, with open (RBOE), closed eyes (RBCE) and under unipodal dominant side (RUDL) conditions. Proprioception was assessed by measuring participants’ ability to reposition their dominant knee at 45º. Finally, performance on the cognitive task was measured through a subscale of the Barcelona Test called “categorical evocation in associations.” The EG and the CG completed 8-week training programme with two sessions the 30 minutes per week of postural control and proprioception exercises. The EG additionally included music in each session. Results: The results showed significant differences in both group at the postural control tests (RBOE and RBCE) and proprioceptive test post intervention. Conclusion: The 8-week training program had a positive impact on the post-intervention results for motor control and proprioception, but not on the results of the cognitive task. There were no significant differences between the groups that carried out sessions with or without music.
