Multiple Sclerosis Patients

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most frequent neurological disease causing permanent disability in young adults. Subtle walking difficulties, such as reduced walking speed, step length, cadence and increased step width can be detected at an early stage of the disease. Main goal of this research is by using non-invasive wireless inertial sensors measure gait of MS patients in clinical setting and extract temporal biomechanical parameters that would allow objectively evaluate level of disability in MS patients. Analysis of 25-Foot walk showed that the duration of stance phase is approximately 1.6 times greater in MS group than in healthy control group, while the duration of swing phase in MS group is 1.3 times longer. In general, the MS patients are walking approximately 1.6 times slower.

Disability Status

Background: Day-to-day reliability and cut-off values to detect abnormal walking fatigability (WF) remain to be investigated in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). Methods: In all, 49 pwMS (mean Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) ± standard deviation (SD): 3.3 ± 1.9) and 28 matched healthy controls (HC) performed the six-minute walking test (6MWT) on two different days to determine day-to-day reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)) and limits of agreement (LOA) for five different equations of WF. Objective: To examine day-to-day reliability, agreement and discriminative validity for measuring WF. Results and conclusion: WF expressed as the ratio between the first and sixth minute had the best day-to-day reliability (ICC’s range of 0.76–0.95 and 0.60–0.86, respectively) in both pwMS and HC, while LOA were 15% and 7%, respectively. Ecological validity and clinical importance should be further investigated.
