Motor Fatigue Measurement by Distance-Induced Slow Down of Walking Speed in Multiple Sclerosis
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE Motor fatigue and ambulation impairment are prominent clinical features of people with multiple sclerosis (pMS). We hypothesized that a multimodal and comparative assessment of walking speed on short and long distance would allow a better delineation and quantification of gait fatigability in pMS. Our objectives were to compare 4 walking paradigms: the timed 25-foot wal...
متن کاملMovement measurements at home for multiple sclerosis: walking speed measured by a novel ambient measurement system
Background Gait disturbance is a major contributor to clinical disability in multiple sclerosis (MS). A sensor was developed to assess walking speed at home for people with MS using infrared technology in real-time without the use of wearables. Objective To develop continuous in-home outcome measures to assess gait in adults with MS. Methods Movement measurements were collected continuously...

متن کاملImpairment, disability and fatigue in multiple sclerosis
Background: Identifying the predictors of pain is important for both health professionals and researchers, because pain has repeatedly been found to be a strong predictor of activity limitations and participation restrictions. The objective of this study was to determine the predictors of pain presence and severity in a large, well-designed sample of community dwelling individuals with multip...
