Conditions

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to implement a personalized training program to prevent functional decline in frail subjects but not yet disable. The purpose of the project is to test the training in a subject at particularly high risk of entering the disabled condition. A total of 80 frail subjects, divide the participants into two groups "Divida Senso Group" (experimental group) and "Standard of care Group" (Control group) will be recruited. The expected outcome is to slow down a functional decline not only in isolation in the domains trained by the program.

Interventions

BEHAVIORALExperimental training

Through The Dividat Senso intelligent platform, subjects will be subjected to locomotion, cognitive and sensory domain-specific exercise programs. The exercises will be of increasing difficulty. Cognitive exercises will in fact be carried out by interacting with the DIVIDAT device consisting of a monitor and a pressure-sensitive platform through weight shifts, multidirectional steps and jumps.
