AB - Purpose：This study evaluated the feasibility of using Nintendo Wii games for improving cognition, balance,function in patients with dementia. Methods：A total 30 dementia patients were randomly assigned into the experimental group(n=15) and control group(n=15). All subjects performed a general therapeutic exercise, and 30-minute sessions of the table tennis and fencing game of Nintendo Wii were conducted with experimental group 3 times a week for 8 weeks. The intervention effects were measured by using MMSE-K, BBS, and FIM. The results were analyzed by using repeated measure ANOVA. Results：The MMSE-K and BBS scores showed significant differences. A significant interaction was observed between the experimental group and the control group in MMSE-K. The final MMSE-K and BBS scores for the experimental group were significantly higher than those for the control group. However, there was no difference in the FIM scores. Conclusion：We suggest that Nintendo Wii games are effective in cognㅇition and balance improvement in dementia patients. Future research on a variety of programs in needed.
