Study Summary

This trial will compare the effects of 40 Hz sound, music, and a combination of the two on cognitive function in older adults with mild cognitive impairment.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for older adults who have mild cognitive impairment but can still take care of themselves. They shouldn't have dementia, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, severe hearing loss, or any serious medical/psychiatric issues that would stop them from following the study.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests three things: music at a specific frequency (40 Hz), just the sound at this frequency without music, and whatever music the participant likes best. The goal is to see if these sounds improve brain function in those with mild cognitive issues.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves listening to sounds or music, side effects might include discomfort due to volume or frequency of sound for those with sensitive hearing but are generally expected to be minimal.
