[Efficiency of computerized cognitive training for prevention of cognitive impairments and stimulation of neuroplasticity.]

Computerized cognitive training (CCT) is a rapidly developing area of cognitive rehabilitation at the intersection of information technology and healthcare, the constantly updated results of which can be successfully translated into practical application in clinical medicine and in particular in gerontology. The basis of CCT, as a non-invasive method of influencing the functional activity of the brain and the processes of neuroplasticity, is software for stimulating cognitive functions in order to improve their productivity. The level of scientific and practical interest in CCP technology is growing rapidly. The article reports on the current state of research on the use of CCT aimed at correcting cognitive impairment. The purpose of this work is to systematize the available scientific data in this area, as well as to promote further integration of research in the field of information technology into clinical practice, in particular, to study the potential of CCT as a promising therapeutic tool in the paradigm of successful aging and prevention of the progression of cognitive impairment. This noninvasive intervention may improve global cognitive function in patients with clinically defined impairments and during normal aging in cognitively healthy older adults. However, new studies with fully comparable protocols are needed to evaluate in more detail the duration of the effect and the effectiveness of CCT in preventing cognitive decline in the long term.
