Warmth and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) in Improving Cognitive Functions in People with Dementia
Condition: Dementia · Sponsor: The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
About this study
Evidence showed that both TENS and passive body heating are potential treatment strategies for improving cognitive functions in people with dementia. It is hypothesized that hat device (Warmth +TENS) over the 4 acupuncture points would induce a greater improvement in cognitive functions and behavioural symptoms when compared with other hat devices (Warmth + placebo-TENS; TENS only; Warmth alone) and Control (hat device with no warmth and no TENS).
