NCT04667130

Brief Summary

This study monitor the immediate and persistent impact of a preventive complex six-month program specifically developed for newly diagnosed people with multiple sclerosis on fatigue, mental and physical fitness, and quality of life. The study determined whether changes in clinical function are related to changes in neurohormones, and whether the effect of therapy is dependent on the active approach of study participants.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Questionnaires - The Fatigue scale for motor and cognitive functions

    FSMC - is an assessment of MS-related cognitive and motor fatigue. A Likert-type 5-point scale (ranging from 'does not apply at all' to 'applies completely') produces a score between 1 and 5 for each scored question. Thus minimum value is 20 (no fatigue at all) and maximum value is 100 (severest grade of fatigue).

    change after six months of the program and after next six moths without therapy is being assessed

  • Questionnaires - The Satisfaction With Life Scale

    The scale measures the current level of satisfaction with one's own life. Investigators express the extent to which they agree or disagree with the five statements. The rating scale contains 7 points (1- "strongly disagree" and 7 - "strongly agree"). The maximum number of points on the scale is 35 (maximum satisfaction with your life) and the minimum number of points is 5 (dissatisfaction with your life).

    change after six months of the program and after next six moths without therapy is being assessed

  • Questionnaires - Multiple Sclerosis Acceptance Questionnaire

    This questionnaire consists of 20 statements that relate to the lives of patients with MS. The rating scale has seven points (1- "never pays" to 7 - "always pays"). The minimum value is 20 (minimum adaptation to the diagnosis of MS for a large limitation of the normal life of MS) and the maximum value is 140 points (maximum adaptation to the diagnosis of MS - without the limitation of the normal life of MS) .

    change after six months of the program and after next six moths without therapy is being assessed

  • Questionnaires - Beck Depression Inventory Score

    questionnaire is divided into thirteen categories and patients select a statement in each category which best fits their current feelings on the scale ranged from 0 (the best feelings) to 3 (the worst feelings). The maximum value of the total scale is 39 and shows the worst feeling of the person.

Study Arms (1)

Preventive Complex Program for Newly Diagnosed People With Multiple Sclerosis

EXPERIMENTAL

Providing information about the possibilities of physiotherapy, Computer Kinesiology, psychotherapy, Motor progam activating therapy, aerobic exercise

Behavioral: Preventive Complex Program for Newly Diagnosed People With Multiple Sclerosis

Interventions

Preventive program included informations of the possibilities of physiotherapy in the treatment of multiple sclerosis focused on fatigue management - recommending lifestyle changes. Program included a the treatment of psychosomatic, viscerosomatic functional disorders by reflexively poor connection through the locomotor system using computer kinesiology, psychotherapy, manual therapy - where patients are corrected into a postural position and the joints are functionally centred, and aerobic exercise to influence fatigue and improve the performance of the cardiovascular system.
