Active and Mindful - A Mind-Body Programme for People With Multiple Sclerosis: a Feasibility Study Protocol

2026년 6월 12일 업데이트: Catarina Alexandra Nunes Martins

The purpose of this exploratory study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the "Active and Mindful" home-based mind-body exercise program for individuals diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in Portugal and Spain.

Multiple Sclerosis often leads to physical and psychological challenges that impact health-related quality of life. Mind-body exercise programs combined with remote supervision present an accessible, flexible alternative to traditional center-based rehabilitation. This study assesses the practicality of implementing a 9-month online intervention delivered via video-conferencing, focusing on recruitment rates, retention, participant attendance, and overall satisfaction. Secondarily, the study explores pre-to-post changes in clinical and psychological indicators such as perceived physical exertion and health-related quality of life.

상세 설명

Background:

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, progressive neurological condition that requires ongoing management to maintain physical functioning and psychological well-being. Exercising at home using digital health solutions offers a viable pathway to increase adherence and overcome logistical barriers (such as transportation or geographic isolation) often faced by clinical populations. This exploratory study investigates the "Active and Mindful" program, a remotely supervised, home-based intervention designed specifically to accommodate the functional variations of people living with MS.

Objectives:

  1. To determine the feasibility of the program through quantitative benchmarks, specifically recruitment efficiency, attrition (retention rate), and global session attendance.
  2. To evaluate participant acceptability and satisfaction with the synchronous group dynamic.
  3. To collect preliminary exploratory data on patient-reported outcomes, including perceived exertion during sessions and health-related quality of life domains.

Methodology:

The study utilized a non-randomized, single-group, interventional design spanning a total duration of 9 months. Individuals with MS were recruited via digital interest forms and institutional channels across Portugal (in collaboration with the Sociedade Portuguesa de Esclerose Múltipla - SPEM) and Spain (in collaboration with the Asociación de Familiares y Afectados de Esclerosis Multiple - AFAEM).

The intervention was structured into distinct functional tiers to ensure physical safety and progressive adaptation:

  • Synchronous Phase: Live, exercise sessions conducted via the ZOOM platform in small groups ranging from 3 to 8 participants, organized according to their baseline functional capacity. Sessions were held twice a week and incorporated physical fitness, adapted Pilates, Tai-Chi, mindfulness protocols, and guided relaxation techniques.
  • Asynchronous Phase: During the latter half of the program, participants were progressively introduced to and integrated with digital video resources hosted on a dedicated web platform, promoting independent home practice.
  • Session Monitoring: To assess the specific feasibility of these pre-recorded video sessions, participants completed study-specific session evaluation forms.

Data collection and Timeline:

Quantitative data and validated health surveys were administered at three distinct time points to capture the progression of the cohort:

  • Baseline(T0): Collected before the first exercise session to record sociodemographic characteristics, clinical history, and initial status.
  • Midpoint Assessment (T1): Conducted at approximately 4.5 months to monitor early compliance and initial shifts in perceived effort.
  • Post-test (T2): Completed at month 9 to evaluate the terminal outcomes, overall compliance, retention metrics, and final system satisfaction.
