Walking Fatigability,Saptiotemporal Gait Parameters and Falling in MS Patients
Starting soon
Conditions studied: Multiple Sclerosis
In brief
This observational study aims to investigate the relationship between walking fatigability, changes in spatiotemporal gait parameters, and risk of falling in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). Participants will be divided into two groups: those with walking fatigability and those without. Each participant will undergo functional tests to detect deterioration in patiotemoral gait parameters and risk of falling . The results of this study will help understand how walking fatigability affects gait and fall risk in MS, providing insights for rehabilitation strategies.

You may qualify if…
- Sixty-two RRMS patients from both sexes.
- Aged from 20 to 40 years with a confirmed diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (based on McDonald criteria).
