The Feasibility of Frame Running as an Exercise Option for People With Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Feasibility of Frame Running as an Exercise Option for People With Multiple Sclerosis With Impaired Balance and Mobility

Clinical Trial Summary

There is ample evidence that regular exercise can reduce MS specific symptoms and improve health and wellbeing in people with MS. However, for people with MS to engage in exercise activities long term, it is important that they are offered a range of exercise opportunities that are safe, feasible and potentially effective to reduce MS symptom. This will allow people to select an activity they enjoy, is adapted to their needs and thus are more sustainable long-term. Frame Running (FR) provides an opportunity for people with walking and balance problems to walk or run safely without the risk of falling. The frame consists of three wheels and has a saddle and handlebars like a trike without pedals. The proposed mixed methods study aims to examine the feasibility and acceptability of FR as a sustainable aerobic exercise option for people with MS and the feasibility of conducting a future definite trial into the impact of FR on functional mobility, fatigue, cardiorespiratory function and psychosocial outcomes. People who experience problems with their walking and/or balance will be eligible to take part in this study which consists of a 12 weekly group FR training sessions led by a qualified coach. FR training attendance, recruitment, retention, outcome measure completion and adverse events will be recorded and the participant views on the feasibility, acceptability and impact of FR will be explored through the use of focus groups. Physical function, physical activity and psychosocial outcomes will be assessed at baseline, 6 and 12 weeks.
