An interventional study of Telerehabilitation Physical Activity Behavioral Intervention in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), sponsored by Creighton University. Recruiting at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 19 Years to 90 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-11-03.
Sponsored by Creighton University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
The purpose of this study is to determine the practicality/feasibility of a virtual physical activity intervention to improve daily steps for Veterans with mild cognitive impairment and their care partners living in rural areas.
Participation includes:
3,872 studies on the registry are indexed under Cognitive Dysfunction; 1,119 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 12 is below the median of 64 across 2,794 interventional studies indexed under Cognitive Dysfunction.

Behavioral: Telerehabilitation Physical Activity Behavioral Intervention
Six dyads (n=12) will complete TPAB field testing and will undergo testing at baseline and post-intervention. Consent, baseline testing, intervention delivery, and post-testing will be conducted virtually via Microsoft Teams and data recorded in VA REDCap. Testing sessions will not be recorded, with the exception of semi-structured interviews during post-testing. The testing procedures will take approximately 2 hours to complete at each testing time point. The TPAB intervention will involve weekly 30-minute sessions with study personnel for 6 weeks. Due to the 7-day activity monitor data collection prior to and following the 6-week TPAB intervention, participants will be enrolled in the study for approximately 8 weeks. Three dyads will be asked to join the advisory board with the research team to assist with implementing the walking program adaptations based on the collective feedback across the 16 dyads.
Weekly Session Attendance
The total number of sessions attended by dyads will be reported as a percentage of the 6 weekly sessions. Ranges of attendance could be 0% (not attending any sessions) to 100% attending all session. Attendance will be used to evaluate participant engagement and practicality of implementation.
Time frame: From enrollment to end of the 6-week intervention
Study Retention
Defined as continued participation through the study completion. Calculated using withdrawal and completion records. Higher retention (such as 100% retention indicating all dyads that enrolled in the study, completed the study) supports intervention feasibility.
Time frame: From enrollment to end of intervention at 8 weeks
Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI)
Evaluates participant interest, enjoyment, perceived value, and engagement with the intervention. The IMI is comprised of 7 statements related to interest/enjoyment that the participant indicates how true the statement is to them regarding their experience participating in the intervention. Each statement is scored on a 1-7 scale and an average is computed across all the questions to determine the IMI score. Higher scores indicate greater intervention acceptability.
Time frame: Post-intervention (week 8)
Number of participants with study-related adverse events
Includes falls, injuries, medical issues, skin irritation, or other unintended consequences. Used to evaluate intervention safety.
Time frame: From enrollment to end of intervention at 8 weeks
Average Daily Stepping
Objective measure of physical activity captured through Fitbit devices. Average daily step counts are computed in the Fitbit application and will be recorded for each day and averaged over the 7-day monitoring period before and after the intervention provide proof-of-concept evidence of behavior change.
Time frame: Pre (before starting the 6-week walking program) and Post Intervention (following completion of the 6-week walking program)
Qualitative Intervention Feasibility Outcomes
Interviews evaluating demand, implementation, practicality, acceptability, adaptation, and integration. Findings will guide refinement of the intervention for future trials.
Time frame: Post-intervention (for feedback)

Started Jun 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Oct 2027, 16 months after the start.
Of 1,442 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Cognitive Dysfunction, half reached primary completion within 27 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 13 and three quarters within 51. This study's planned 16 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 1,511 studies reached it within 27 months; a quarter within 12 and three quarters within 50.
