User-Led Meaningful Activity and Early-Stage Dementia
NCT05159869
Recruiting
Neuropsychiatric symptoms are the most difficult, distressing, and burdensome aspects of dementia care and a catalyst for long-term care placement. Intervention studies have largely focused on helping caregivers manage these symptoms. However, little has been done with regard to persons at the earliest stages of dementia, nor have persons with dementia played a direct and active, central role in helping to design intervention studies. This study focuses on building, pilot testing, and evaluating... Read More

Testing the Pain Clinical Practice Guideline
NCT05858996
Recruiting
There are evidence based processes for assessment and management of pain using pharmacologic and nonpharmacological approaches. These were reviewed and included within the Pain Management Clinical Practice Guideline (Pain Management CPG) recently developed by AMDA: The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine. There are, however, many challenges to translating the use of Clinical Practice Guidelines into clinical settings. To overcome these challenges we developed and previously tested... Read More

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the role of family members in caring for hospitalized older adults with cognitive impairment. The main questions it aims to answer are: What features of the healthcare system facilitate or hinder family involvement in care from the perspective of patients, families, and healthcare workers? How do hospital leaders understand the facilitators and barriers to family involvement? Data collection will occur via semi-structure interviews, direct... Read More

Apolipoprotein E (APOE) Genotype Effects on Triglycerides and Blood Flow in the Human Brain
NCT04692441
Recruiting
High fat feeding (HFF) increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) but individuals who carry the AD risk gene E4 paradoxically improve after acute HFF. The investigators propose to further study this phenomenon with a clinical study to assess cerebral blood flow which can be measured by a technique called arterial spin labeling (ASL) on an MRI and is tightly related to brain metabolism.

Genetic Characterization of Movement Disorders and Dementias
NCT02014246
Recruiting
Background: There are two basic types of movement disorders. Some cause excessive movement, some cause slowness or lack of movement. Some of these are caused by mutations in genes. On the other hand, dementia is a condition of declining mental abilities, especially memory. Dementia can occur at any age but becomes more frequent with age. Researchers want to study the genes of families with a history of movement disorders or dementia. They hope to find a genetic cause of these disorders. This ca... Read More
