Without the participation of people with MS, it would be impossible to develop new and better therapies and other interventions.

The Effects of Vestibular Exercise and Cervical Stabilization Exercise Training on Balance and Gait in MS Patients

Study Purpose

The population of this research consists of individuals between the ages of 18-65 with MS disease. MS patients to be included in the study will be directed by the Neurology outpatient clinic of Sanko University Hospital. All volunteers who agreed to participate in this randomized controlled pretest-posttest design study and met the sample criteria will be included in the study.Individuals who agree to participate will be divided into three groups by simple random method and closed envelope method. Vestibular exercise training group will be formed as Group 1 and Cervical stabilization exercise training group as Group 2, control group, and Group 3 as control group.Functional reach test, tandem stand test, 25 step walking test scale form, Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life Scale form ( MSQOL-54),Fatigue Impact Scale,Beck depression inventory, MS walking scale (msys-12), dizziness disability inventory, four step square test, timed sit and stand test. , 2 minutes walking test be performed before and after treatment,

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
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.	Interventional
Eligible Ages	18 Years - 65 Years
Gender	All

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.	NCT05409599
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.	N/A

Additional Details

Group 1: Vestibular exercise training will be given in addition to conventional treatment (including TENS, electrical stimulation and normal joint range of motion exercises) for 12 weeks. Cawthorne-Cooksey Exercises will be given as a treatment protocol for vestibular exercise training. Group 2 :Cervical stabilization exercise training will be given in addition to conventional treatment (including Tens, electrical stimulation and normal range of motion exercises) for 12 weeks. Cervical stabilization training improves the sense of cervical proprioception as well as strength and endurance, thereby reducing joint position sense error. Cervical stabilization exercises and training, consisting of 3 stages with increasing difficulty level, will be applied. Group3: Classical balance exercise training will be given to the control group in addition to conventional treatment (including Tens, electrical stimulation and normal range of motion exercises) for 12 weeks. These exercises were selected among the exercises routinely used in balance rehabilitation in the literature and clinic. Balance exercise program: walking on tiptoe and heel, walking straight and diagonally on the line, standing on a balance board, supine/prone rolling on the rehabilitation ball, pelvis control in the sagittal and frontal planes on the rehabilitation ball, prone balance on the rehabilitation ball, walking on mats of different softness , was created from side walking exercises.
