Summary

Many patients with exhaustion disorders continue to have significant difficulties with attention and memory function which reduce their work ability. This randomized study investigates whether the addition of a 12-week period of specific cognitive training or physical fitness training could further enhance cognitive function in patients with exhaustion disorder participating in a multimodal rehabilitation program.

Conditions

  • Exhaustion; Syndrome
  • Burnout Syndrome

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Computer-based cognitive training

A total of 36 training sessions, approximately 20 minutes long each. Five different tasks were used in training all tapping different aspects of cognitive control such as updating, shifting, visuo-spatial working memory and episodic memory binding.

BEHAVIORAL

Physical fitness training

A total of 36 training sessions, approximately 40 minutes long each, with physical fitness training performed as group indoor cycling. The participants were instructed to attain a load of approximately 65-80% of their maximum heart rate.
