What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
reaction time testOther
Reaction time tests consist of 3 sub-parameters as simple reaction time, selective reaction time and distinctive reaction time. Participants will do these tests on the computer.
Physical fitness testOther
The physical fitness test will be evaluated with the senior fitness test used for geriatrics and the 8 meter walking speed test.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Case group (mild cognitive impairment) | geriatric population with mild cognitive impairment Receives: Other: reaction time test; Other: Physical fitness test | |
| Control Group (healthy elderly) | healthy older adults without cognitive impairment Receives: Other: reaction time test; Other: Physical fitness test |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Reaction Time and Physical Fitness, run by Dokuz Eylul University.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Zeynep sağ, PT (+905347480112, fzt.zeynep.sag@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
reaction time (time frame: Participants are expected to complete the 3 sub-parameters of reaction time measurements in an average of 20 minutes, including rest periods). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Jul 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
