Feasibility study on the assessment of auditory sustained attention through walking motor parameters in mild cognitive impairments and healthy subjects

Dementia and other cognitive disorders affect more than 35 million people worldwide. Over the last years, cognitive training tools were used to improve the brain functioning, thus to slow down the cognitive decline. Recently, research studies have demonstrated that aerobic exercise could play an important restorative role toward cognitive impairments. Therefore, the aim of this work is to present an innovative sensorized approach which combines aerobic exercise and traditional cognitive tools for daily training.
