Clinical Trial Summary

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, autoimmune and neurodegenerative disease characterized by inflammation and progressive demyelination of the central nervous system. It is characterized by muscle weakness, balance and coordination disorder, which is more common in the lower extremities and trunk muscles. Over time, these symptoms decrease the individual's level of physical activity, mobility and quality of life, leading to further deterioration of the disorder. One of the most important problems that cause these problems in individuals with MS is reduced core stabilization. Decrease in core stabilization affects the quality of limb movements as well as trunk stability when considering the kinetic chain in the body. Pilates-based core stabilization training (PBCST) are a controlled exercise form used to improve the stabilization of trunk muscles. There are no studies on the effect of this training on lower extremity isokinetic muscle strength in individuals with MS. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of PBCST on lower extremity muscle strength, postural sway and kinetic chain in individuals with MS.


Clinical Trial Description

The study was planned as randomized controlled. Individuals included in the study wiil randomly allocate to the group receiving the supervised PBCST and the home exercise group. While the supervised exercise group receives PBCST for 2 days and 8 weeks in the clinic, the home exercise group will perform the same exercises at home for the same time as the brochures prepared for them. The exercise program will show progression at 2-week intervals. A session will be held for both groups to teach the basic principles of pilates and will not be counted in the 8-week program. At the beginning and end of treatment, individuals will be evaluated for isokinetic muscle strength, balance and postural sway, fatigue level, quality of life and functional capacity parameters. PBCST is thought to reduce postural sways and increase lower extremity muscle strength by increasing core stability with the effect of kinetic chain and increased stabilization. ;
