Effects of Face-to-Face Versus Telerehabilitation-Based Circuit Training in People With Multiple Sclerosis

2026년 8월 14일 업데이트: Adennur Tayboğa, Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa

This randomized controlled study was planned to compare the effects of delivering the same exercise content face-to-face and through telerehabilitation in individuals diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. All participants will receive circuit training for 8 weeks. The program will consist of two sessions per week, each lasting approximately 60 minutes. Assessments will be performed before and after treatment. Participants will be divided into two groups according to the mode of delivery: face-to-face and telerehabilitation. Telerehabilitation sessions will be conducted synchronously (via live connection) twice a week.

The study population will consist of adults aged 18-65 years with a diagnosis of MS who attend Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa Hospital. Individuals who meet the eligibility criteria will be included in the study on a voluntary basis after being informed about the study. Participants will be allocated to the groups using stratified randomization based on EDSS scores.

The circuit training program will consist of endurance-, resistance-, and balance-focused exercise components. The effects of the interventions will be evaluated in terms of walking endurance and speed, functional mobility, dynamic balance, lower-extremity functional muscle strength, perceived walking ability, fatigue, quality of life, and the physical and psychological impact of MS. All assessments will be performed before the intervention and at the end of the 8-week program.

상세 설명

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease characterized by inflammation, demyelination, and axonal loss in the central nervous system, affecting functions such as balance, walking, muscle strength, and fatigue, thereby reducing individuals' participation in activities and quality of life. Balance, coordination, strengthening, and aerobic exercise approaches are widely used in MS rehabilitation, and these methods are supported by a high level of evidence for improving functional capacity.

One method that allows these approaches to be combined and structured around functional tasks is circuit training, in which exercises are organized as consecutive stations with short rest intervals. Circuit training is defined as a comprehensive exercise model that targets endurance, balance, strength, and motor control components within the same session. Straudi et al. demonstrated that supervised and home-based task-oriented circuit training improved walking endurance and had positive effects on walking speed, functional mobility, fatigue, and muscle oxygen consumption. Doğan et al. reported that telerehabilitation- and virtual reality-supported circuit training improved trunk control, upper extremity function, and ataxia severity. In a meta-analysis conducted by Du et al., circuit training interventions were reported to have positive effects on balance, walking, fatigue, and quality of life in individuals with MS.

However, studies directly investigating circuit training in individuals with MS are limited. In recent years, telerehabilitation has emerged as a contemporary approach that provides access independent of distance; however, the need for further controlled studies to strengthen the level of evidence in MS has been emphasized.

The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the effects of an 8-week circuit training program delivered face-to-face and through synchronous telerehabilitation on walking capacity, functional mobility, lower-extremity muscle strength, fatigue, activities of daily living, and quality of life in individuals with MS.

Functional Mobility: Timed Up and Go Test (TUG)
기간: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Functional mobility will be assessed using the Timed Up and Go Test. The participant will begin in a seated position on a chair; upon command, the participant will stand up, walk a distance of 3 meters, turn around, return to the chair, and sit down. The time required to complete the test will be recorded in seconds. This test provides an integrated assessment of functional movements frequently used in daily life, including sit-to-stand, walking, turning, and sitting down.
Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Dynamic Balance: Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Mini-BESTest)
기간: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Dynamic balance will be assessed using the Mini-BESTest. The Mini-BESTest consists of tasks involving anticipatory postural control, reactive postural responses, sensory orientation, and dynamic gait. The participant's ability to use different balance strategies, generate postural responses, and maintain stability during movement will be assessed. Each item will be scored according to performance, and the total score will provide information about the level of dynamic balance.
Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Lower-Extremity Functional Muscle Strength: Five Times Sit-to-Stand Test (5xSTS)
기간: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Lower-extremity functional muscle strength will be assessed using the Five Times Sit-to-Stand Test. Participants will be instructed to stand up from and sit down on a standard chair five consecutive times, preferably without using their arms. The time required to complete the test will be recorded in seconds. A shorter completion time will indicate better lower-extremity functional muscle strength and functional transfer performance. Participants will be observed for safety during the test, and the use of an assistive device will be recorded if necessary.
Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Patient-Perceived Impact on Walking Ability: Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale-12 (MSWS-12)
기간: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
The patient-perceived impact on walking ability will be assessed using the MSWS-12. The scale consists of 12 items that assess the impact of MS on walking function based on patient-reported outcomes. Participants will rate the difficulties they have experienced while walking and the impact of these difficulties on their daily lives. Higher scores indicate a greater perceived limitation in walking due to MS.
Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Fatigue: Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS)
기간: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Fatigue will be assessed using the Modified Fatigue Impact Scale. The MFIS is a patient-reported measure that assesses the physical, cognitive, and psychosocial impact of fatigue on daily life. Participants will indicate the extent to which fatigue has affected their activities, cognitive functioning, social life, and overall functioning. Higher total scores indicate a greater impact of fatigue on daily life.
Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Quality of Life: Multiple Sclerosis International Quality of Life Questionnaire (MusiQoL)
기간: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Quality of life will be assessed using the MusiQoL. The MusiQoL is a patient-reported measure developed to assess MS-specific health-related quality of life. The questionnaire evaluates different dimensions of quality of life, including activities of daily living, psychological well-being, symptoms, relationships with friends, family relationships, coping, relationship with the health care system, and the overall impact of the disease on the individual. Higher scores indicate better perceived quality of life.
Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
Physical and Psychological Impact of Multiple Sclerosis: Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale-29 (MSIS-29)
기간: Baseline and post-intervention at Week 8
The physical and psychological impact of MS will be assessed using the MSIS-29. The scale consists of 29 items that assess the patient-reported impact of MS on daily life, physical functioning, mobility, emotional status, and overall well-being. The physical and psychological subscales can be evaluated separately. Higher total and subscale scores indicate a greater perceived impact of the disease on the individual.
