This tool gives us information about performance in activities of daily living Score: 0-8 High score means better result |
| Baseline, 3 and 6 months (3 months after intervention) |
| Change from baseline Quality of life Alzheimer Disease (QoL-AD) at 3 and 6 months | Through this test we can know the level of quality of life of users who suffer from this disease Score: 0-52 High score means better result | Baseline, 3 and 6 months (3 months after intervention) |
| Change from baseline FRAIL test at 3 and 6 months | This rapid test allows to determine the state of frailty of older people Score: 0-5 High score means worst result | Baseline, 3 and 6 months (3 months after intervention) |
| Change from baseline Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) at 3 and 6 months | This test gives us information about the cognitive performance of the participants Score: 0-30 High score means better result | Baseline, 3 and 6 months (3 months after intervention) |
| Change from baseline Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI-Q) at 3 and 6 months | This tool allows to specify the neuropsychiatric symptoms patients present Score: 0-36 High score means worst result | Baseline, 3 and 6 months (3 months after intervention) |
| Change from baseline Manual dynamometry at 1,2,3 and 6 months | This test allows to quantify force an individual presents in a simple way Score: 0-∞ High score means better result | Baseline, 1, 2, 3 and 6 months (3 months after intervention) |
| Modified Borg scale | In this way we can measure the level of perceived exertion during the intervention with strength exercise Score: 0-10 High score means more fatigue | 3 times/week during strength exercises sessions |
| Change from baseline One Maximum repetition strength test (1 MR) at 1,2,3 and 6 months | Allows you easily to assess maximum strength Score: 0-∞ High score means more strength level | Baseline, 1 , 2 , 3 and 6 months (3 months after intervention) |
