Clinical Trial Summary

The current project will fill a knowledge gap in the follow-up of people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) with mild and moderate disability levels, with the purpose to assess the adequacy of measurement tools for trunk control and balance, functions that are pre-requisites for optimal performance in everyday physical activities.


Clinical Trial Description

Trunk control and balance, necessary for daily activities, are frequently impaired in people with MS. Adequate measurement tools for clinical- and research purposes are thus warranted. In this study two measurement tools will be explored: 1. The Trunk Impairment scale - modified Norwegian version (TIS-modNV), which has demonstrated high validity and reliability in individuals with stoke (Gjelsvik et al., 2012), however its properties has not yet been assessed in people with MS. Concurrent validity with a balance scale, the Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Mini-BESTest), will be assessed as well as its inter- and intra-rater reliability. 2. The AMTI Accugait Optimized™ multi-axis force platform (AMTI, Inc., Newton, MA) will be examined as there is a lack of studies measuring its properties within the MS population. A validity assessment of this tool will be included in this measurement study. This study is two-parted, each with a separate aim: Aim part 1: To determine the validity and reliability of the TIS-modNV across mild and moderate disability levels in the MS population. Aim part 2: To determine the concurrent validity of the AMTI AccuGait OptimizedTM force plate system compared to the Mini-BESTest across mild and moderate disability levels in the MS population. ;
