Summary

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS). MS usually progresses with attacks, sequelae after attacks because it severely restricts the quality of life in patients and leads to progressive disability (Frohman et al., 2006). Balance and coordination problems, decreasing of physical activity level and fall disorders are observed in patients with MS (Confavreux et al., 2014). When the literature was examined, a relationship was found between kinesiophobia, quality of life, physical activity level and pain in stroke patients. Physical activity level, balance, fear of falling and kinesiophobia which are frequently seen in patients with MS have not been studied. In this study, the relationship between kinesiophobia, physical activity, balance and fear of fall in MS patients will be investigated.
