Clinical Trial Summary

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation, demyelination and axonal loss of the central nervous system. The etiology of the disease is not known exactly and possible causes are; genetic, vitamin D deficiency, viral, environmental and autoimmune factors have been identified. Common findings of MS are in the literature; sensory, visual problems, fatigue, urinary retention / incontinence, motor problems (inability to walk, upper extremity skills, coordination and balance problems), cognitive deficits, tone, speech and swallowing disorders. In the rehabilitation of MS; It is seen that balance, coordination, strengthening, aerobic and neurodevelopmental exercise methods are used and these approaches have reached moderate / high level evidence in the literature. Task-oriented circuit therapy(TOECT), one of the current neurophysiology-based approaches; It is a motor learning-based exercise approach based on the theory of dynamic systems, one of the theories of motion control, aiming at the acquisition of skills for a specific functional activity. When the existing studies are examined, it has been determined that there are a limited number of randomized controlled studies examining the effects of TOECT and that sufficient evidence cannot be obtained with these studies. In previous studies, it has been observed that standardization of exercise approaches applied to the control group could not be achieved and the control groups generally included applications that could create passive or effect summation compared to the experimental groups. In addition, in the literature, TOECT, which includes rehabilitation games to be applied in the form of station training, in MS patients; There is no randomized controlled study examining the effects on balance, walking, fatigue, trunk and upper extremity functions and kinematics. In this direction, the purpose of the research is; To examine the effects of technology-supported TOECT and technology-supported home program applied as station training on walking, quality of life, fatigue, balance, trunk and upper extremity functions of patients with MS, using kinematic and clinical methods. Volunteers who agree to participate in the study will be divided into two groups by the block randomization method. Both groups will receive exercise training 3 sessions per week (24 sessions in total) for 8 weeks. Evaluations will be made before and after 8 weeks treatment
