Lower brain tissue oxygenation puts frailer older adults with multi-morbidity at risk of faints and falls

Researchers from Mercer's Institute for Successful Ageing (MISA) and the Department of Medical Physics at St James's Hospital and Trinity College Dublin have discovered that brain tissue oxygenation is lower in frailer older adults with multiple health conditions (multi-morbidity), putting them at risk of faints and falls. Brain oxygenation - the measure of oxygen in brain tissue - reflects the balance between oxygen delivery and consumption and is vital for the maintenance of normal brain function and tissue integrity.

Novel method enables early detection of cognitive decline

Integration of music with analysis of electrical brain activity. Musical Tests Can DetectMental Deterioration in Old Age Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed a method that employs musical tests and a portable instrument for measuring brain activity to detect cognitive decline in old age. According to the researchers, the method, which is based on the measurement of 15 minutes of electrical activity in the brain while performing simple musical tasks, can be easily implemented by any staff member in any clinic, without requiring special training.
