Clinical Trial Summary

This study was conducted to examine the effects of exercises performed with mechanical hippotherapy device and Cawthorne-Cooksey exercises on balance, dizziness, fatigue and quality of life in patients with Multiple Sclerosis.


Clinical Trial Description

The research is a quantitative study, and it is in the form of randomized controlled type research, one of the experimental research types. In order to provide a homogeneous distribution, the patients were divided into two different exercise groups using the double-blind method from the minimization method. The sample of the study consisted of definitively diagnosed multiple sclerosis (MS) patients who volunteered to participate in the study. Patients who voluntarily agreed to participate in the study; While they were informed about the aims of the study, the duration of the study, the evaluation methods and the applications to be made, the informed consent form was signed by these patients and their consent was obtained. The study sample was divided into two groups by randomization method. The first group was given 35 minutes of traditional physical therapy program and 15 minutes of exercises with a mechanical hippotherapy device, while the second group was given 15 minutes of Cawthorne-Cooksey exercises in addition to the 35-minute traditional physical therapy program. Both exercise groups were given a 50-minute physical therapy program. Patients diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in the study; It was classified according to the Expanded Disability Status Scale Score. Tinetti Balance Rating Scale was used to assess balance. The Dizziness Disability Inventory was used to assess dizziness, the Fatigue Severity Scale and the Fatigue Impact Scale to assess fatigue, and the Ferrans & Powers Quality of Life Index MS Adaptation to assess quality of life. ;
