Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators evaluated the effects of isokinetic muscle strengthening exercises of the quadriceps and hamstring on muscle strength, joint position sense, pain, kinesiophobia and quality of life in patients with multiple sclerosis.


Clinical Trial Description

Objective: To evaluate the effects of isokinetic exercises on muscle strength, knee joint position sense, pain, kinesiophobia, and quality of life in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Outpatient clinic. Participants: Fifty patients with multiple sclerosis. Interventions: Fifty patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomized to an isokinetic exercise (n:25) or home exercise programme (n:25). Sequentially numbered opaque envelopes were used for randomization.

Outcome measures: The outcome measures were the peak torque/body mass index of quadriceps and hamstring muscles at 60°/s and 180°/s velocities, the hamstring/quadriceps ratios at the same velocities, absolute angular errors of the 15°, 45°, and 60° and the mean absolute angular error of joint position sense of the less and more affected knees, and the scores of Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54, Visual Analogue Scale, and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia. ;
