Randomized controlled trial evaluates mental well-being changes in older adults, suggesting online interventions may support healthy aging.
INTRODUCTION The increasing prevalence of age‐related diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, underscores the need for accessible, cost‐effective lifestyle interventions to reduce modifiable dementia risk factors and support healthy aging. METHODS REMINDer is a randomized controlled pilot trial evaluating the feasibility and impact of a 6‐week online, home‐based, live‐streamed multimodal group intervention delivered via videoconferencing. The program, designed for older adults, integrates music, dance movement, and mindfulness. Using a cross‐over design (AB‐BA), participants ( N = 50) are randomized to receive the intervention with two 60‐min sessions per week or a passive control (with delayed intervention). RESULTS Digital outcome assessments were conducted remotely at baseline, post‐intervention, and follow‐up. Primary outcomes include feasibility (adherence rate) and changes in mental and physical well‐being (SF‐12). Secondary outcomes include changes in multi‐domain health and lifestyle behaviors. DISCUSSION REMINDer will provide evidence on the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a scalable online multimodal intervention to support healthy aging and reduce dementia risk. Trail Registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT06530277 Protocol SR‐EK‐477112023 Highlights Randomized controlled pilot trial of an online multimodal mind–body group intervention for older adults. Primary outcomes: Feasibility and changes in mental and physical well‐being. Secondary outcomes: Changes in multi‐domain health and lifestyle behaviors. Remote lifestyle intervention to promote healthy aging and prevent dementia.
