Home-based Balance Training in Adults With Multiple Sclerosis

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This single-group pretest-posttest study aims to examine the feasibility domains in response to 12 weeks of home-based balance training in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). The feasibility domains include 1) process (e.g., recruitment, attendance, adherence rate), 2) resources (e.g., total monetary costs), 3) management (e.g., assessment time), and 4) scientific outcomes (adverse events, intervention acceptability, satisfaction, treatment effects). Moreover, this study aims to evaluate physical function (i.e., balance, mobility, dual-task ability), cognitive function (i.e., cognitive processing speed, verbal memory, visuospatial memory), real-world ambulation (i.e., gait speed, gait variability, gait quantity), and self-report questionnaires (fatigue, fear of falling, walking disability, dual-tasking difficulty). Our proposed intervention is expected to deliver a feasible and accessible exercise modality for balance and cognitive improvement in persons with multiple sclerosis.

Clinical Trial Description

Acknowledging the complex system of balance, this home-based balance training aims to address comprehensive balance control components, such as static balance, limit of stability, postural response (reactive balance), anticipatory postural transition, weight shifting, stability in gait, and stepping exercise. These balance components will be encompassed in every session to train balance function comprehensively. Exercise program will be progressed by varying sensory integrations, base of support, and simultaneous motor-cognitive tasks (i.e., dual-task). ;
