Scoping review explores effects of rhythmic auditory cueing on gait performance in older adults with cognitive impairment, suggesting varying impacts based on condition and cueing protocols.
Purpose Rhythmic auditory cueing (RAC) can enhance gait performance. However, little is known about its effect in people with cognitive impairment. The aim of this review was to describe, in studies of people with cognitive impairment: 1) the medical conditions and cognitive stages studied; 2) the RAC protocols and gait variables measured; and 3) whether cognitive stage or RAC protocols have differing effects on gait.
