Detaljeret beskrivelse

Patients diagnosed with multiple sclerosis will be recruited from outpatient neurology and physical therapy clinics. Following clinical screening, eligible participants will be randomly assigned into two parallel groups:

The Study Group: Will receive High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Therapy sessions targeted at the core/trunk muscles plus a structured balance exercise program for 8 weeks.

The Control Group: Will receive the structured balance exercise program only for 8 weeks.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Aktiv komparator: Experimental group
Patients with multiple sclerosis who will receive High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Therapy targeted at the abdominal and paraspinal core musculature, combined with a specialized balance training program for 8 weeks
Enhed: High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Therapy
For 8 weeks, two weekly sessions of High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Therapy will be used to induce supramaximal contractions to strengthen the central core stabilizers (rectus abdominis, transversus abdominis, and erector spinae)
Andet: Balance Exercises
Standardized balance training including static stance variations, dynamic weight-shifting, perturbation training, and functional gait adjustments will be conducted for 30-45 minutes per session through three weekly sessions for a total duration of 8 weeks.
Aktiv komparator: Control group
Patients with multiple sclerosis who will receive the standardized balance training program alone for 8 weeks.
Andet: Balance Exercises
Standardized balance training including static stance variations, dynamic weight-shifting, perturbation training, and functional gait adjustments will be conducted for 30-45 minutes per session through three weekly sessions for a total duration of 8 weeks.

Hvad måler undersøgelsen?

Primære resultatmål

Resultatmål
Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Balance
Tidsramme: Baseline and after 8 weeks
Berg Balance Scale will be used to assess balance. A 14-item objective clinical rating scale evaluating functional balance performance (e.g., reaching, turning, standing on one leg). Scores range from 0 to 56, where higher scores indicate better balance control.
Baseline and after 8 weeks

Sekundære resultatmål

Resultatmål
Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Health-Related Quality of Life
Tidsramme: Baseline and after 8 weeks
Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54 Questionnaire will be used to assess quality of life. It is a multidimensional, disease-specific questionnaire combining generic and disease-specific items. It generates 12 subscales along with distinct physical and mental health composite summary scores. Higher scores indicate a better quality of life.
Baseline and after 8 weeks
Risk of Fall
Tidsramme: Baseline and after 8 weeks
The Fall Risk Questionnaire will be used to assess the risk of fall. The Fall Risk Questionnaire consists of 12 yes/no questions. For scoring, a "no" answer is scored as zero for all questions, while a "yes" answer is scored as two for the first two questions and as one for the remaining 10 questions. A total Fall Risk Questionnaire score of 4 or higher indicates increased fall risk.
Baseline and after 8 weeks
Core Muscle Function
Tidsramme: Baseline and after 8 weeks
The Trunk Impairment Scale will be used to assess core muscle function. It scores static sitting balance, dynamic sitting balance, and trunk coordination. Total scores range from 0 to 23, with higher scores indicating superior core control.
Baseline and after 8 weeks
