简要总结
The Activities of Daily Living requires the ability to perform multiple activities at the same time, not just the motor or cognitive activity. When many tasks are performed at the same time, the attention capacity is effectively used and attention is shared according to the difficulty and priority of the tasks. There is evidence that patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) have reduced performance during multitasking.
In this study, the investigators aim to investigate the effect of multitasking training on balance, mobility, upper extremity performance and cognitive functions in patients with MS.
详细描述
Patients with MS between 0-1,5 score according to the Extended Disability Status Scale (EDSS) will be included in the study. The balance, mobility, upper extremity performance, the cognitive function will be evaluated twice.
The study was designed as a prospective, randomized controlled study. The patients will be randomly assigned to three groups, the "multi-task training (MT)" group, the "single task training (ST)" group, and "control" group. The training will be twice a week for 6 weeks.
Statistical analyses will be performed using the SPSS software version 15 (SPSS Inc. Chicago, IL, USA). The pre-training and post-training measurements of groups will be compared with the Wilcoxon Test. The significance level was set at p< 0.05

研究组 & 干预措施
Single task training
The exercise program consisting of 10 different motor tasks will be implemented in a single task training group.
干预措施: Single task training (Other)
Multi-task training
In the multitasking training group, a second motor task in the first two weeks, a cognitive task in the third and fourth week, both motor and cognitive tasks in the last two weeks will be added to these 10 different motor tasks.
干预措施: Multi-task training (Other)
Control group
The control group will be taught relaxation exercises and will be asked to perform the exercises at home.
