Summary

Walking, balance problems and falls are common in patients with multiple sclerosis. The 360-degree turn test is a test used to evaluate balance. Telerehabilitation is a rehabilitation system that has been increasingly used in recent years. Still, there is a need for studies on whether there is any difference between face-to-face evaluations with patients and telehealth methods. This study aims to investigate the feasibility and safety of the 360-degree turn test delivered via telehealth.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

360-degree Turn Test

The 360-degree turn test is a measure of dynamic balance. The person tested turns in a complete circle (360 degrees) while the time to complete and/or the number of steps to complete the turn is recorded.

OTHER

Expanded Disability Status Scale

The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) is a method of quantifying disability in multiple sclerosis and monitoring changes in the level of disability over time. It is widely used in clinical trials and in the assessment of people with multiple sclerosis. The EDSS scale ranges from 0 to 10 in 0.5 unit increments that represent higher levels of disability.

OTHER

Perceived Exertion

The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) is a way of measuring physical activity intensity level. Perceived exertion is how hard you feel like your body is working. It is based on the physical sensations a person experiences during physical activity, including increased heart rate, increased respiration or breathing rate, increased sweating, and muscle fatigue. Although this is a subjective measure, your exertion rating based on a 6 to 20 rating scale, may provide a fairly good estimate of your actual heart rate during physical activity.
