ABSTRACT
Prospective memory allows us to remember to perform an action in the future in response to environmental cues (event-based) or predetermined times (time-based). It is often impaired in individuals with mild cognitive impairment. These deficits are related to various cognitive functions such as episodic memory and executive functions and are particularly affected in pathological ageing. In this article, we propose a literature review of non-pharmacological interventions with the elderly with MCI and neurodegenerative diseases. This article explores different strategies for managing prospective memory, including cognitive training, mnemonic strategies, and external aids. In all cases, it is important to design personalized interventions that take account of patients' individual characteristics. Research into the long-term effectiveness of these strategies is still limited, and further studies are needed to properly assess their benefits.
