简要总结
Purpose: Healthy aging is the process of optimizing opportunities for health, participation and safety in order to improve quality of life as people age. This study aimed to provide healthy aging for people with cognitive impairment through the use of the Nintendo Switch combined with Occupational Therapy sessions.
Material and methods: a randomized clinical trial was conducted. The sample was randomized using a software program, OxMar, which allowed the separation of the sample into a control group (CG), which received their usual sessions of conventional occupational therapy, and an experimental group (EG), which received therapy with Nintendo Switch, plus their conventional occupational therapy sessions. An 8-week intervention was conducted with Nintendo Switch.
Measures: Nine Hole Peg Test, Box and Block Test, Barthel Index, WHOQOL-BREF, CSQ-8.

结局指标
主要结局
Box and Block Test
时间窗: Pre-intervention and post-intervention (up to 1 week)
Test that measures the gross motor skills of the upper limbs. It consists of a wooden box that is divided into two halves by an axis, and consists of passing from one half to the other as many wooden blocks as possible with each upper limb, for 1 minute. In this test, the number of blocks that the person is able to pass in one minute with each upper limb is recorded.
Barthel Index
时间窗: Pre-intervention and post-intervention (up to 1 week)
This scale is used to assess the level of functional independence in the basic activities of daily living that a person presents. In this test, the higher the score, the higher the level of functional independence of the person.
Nine Hole Peg Test
时间窗: Pre-intervention and post-intervention (up to 1 week)
This test measures fine manual dexterity. This is considered a "gold standard" to evaluate fine manual dexterity (21). It consists of placing a number of pins on a board with 9 holes and removing them as quickly as possible. This test records the time the person uses with each upper limb.
World Health Organization WHOQOL-BREF
时间窗: Pre-intervention and post-intervention (up to 1 week)
self-administered questionnaire, assesses the general perception of quality of life and general perception of health. It is composed of four domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships and environment. A higher score on this scale indicates a higher quality of life. Potential scores for all domain scores, therefore, range from 4-20.
次要结局
- The Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8, CSQ-8(Post-intervention (up to 1 week))
