EVASION: Effect of VisuAl Stimulation on attentION

This trial is testing whether a visual brain-training software called Emeraude helps people with a specific type of mild cognitive impairment — the kind that affects planning and mental flexibility — process information faster. Participants either do daily visual cognitive exercises or watch TV for 30 days. Researchers also track memory, walking ability, and quality of life. This is a Phase NA trial, meaning it is more of a structured feasibility or exploratory study than a large efficacy trial.

  • Age ≥ 60 years
  • Diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment of a dysexecutive or multidomain dysexecutive nature, according to Winblad consensus criteria
  • Presence of an informal caregiver
  • Subject gave and signed informed consent to participate in the study
  • Affiliation to a social security scheme

You're excluded if

  • Presence of severe depressive symptoms (4-item Geriatric Depression Scale score > 2)
  • Ophthalmological or central pathology that may affect the performance of stimulation exercises
  • Regular use of psychotropic drugs that may have an impact on the performance of stimulation exercises, in the opinion of the investigator (benzodiazepines, antidepressants, neuroleptics, hypnotics)
  • Use of anticonvulsant drugs
  • Existence of a confusional syndrome
  • Participation in another simultaneous clinical trial
  • Person deprived of liberty by judicial or administrative decision
