Participate in a Clinical Trial
Without the participation of people with MS, it would be impossible to develop new and better therapies and other interventions.
Clinical Factors Associated With Position Sense in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Study Purpose
Sensory impairment is an important problem for patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Although there is no complete loss of sensation in patients, 80% of patients have a significant sensory impairment. The sensory system plays an important role in providing the feedback required to perform motor tasks. Cutaneous sensation, especially in the sole of the foot, is very important in maintaining balance and gait. There are studies showing decreased foot sole sensation in MS patients. Another sensation that is important during motor tasks is the proprioceptive sensation. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the sensation of foot sole and joint position, clinical features, attention, fatigue, body awareness and physical activity level in patients with MS.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT04548297 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
