Investigation of the Relationship Between Trunk Motor Control and Balance, Functional Mobility, and Gait Capacity in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

Öz:
Objective: The functions of the trunk are critical for balance, functional mobility, and gait capacity. Trunk impairment, balance, functional mobility, and gait capacity are affected in patients with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). This study examines the relationship between trunk motor control and balance, functional mobility, and gait capacity in PwMS with mild to moderate disability. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in 54 PwMS with an age range of 18-65 years. The disability level was determined by the expanded disability status scale. Trunk motor control was assessed using the trunk impairment scale (TIS). Balance was measured with the Mini-BESTest and single-leg stance test. Functional mobility was measured with the timed up and go test (TUG). Gait capacity was measured with the two-minute walk test. Results: The total points of the TIS were correlated with the Mini-BESTest, single-leg stance test (dominant and non-dominant), TUG, and two-minute walk test in PwMS (r=0.652/p<0.001, r=0.389 p=0.004, r=0.458 p<0.001, r=-0.534 p<0.001, r=0.471 p<0.001, respectively). Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that trunk motor control was related to balance and functional mobility and gait capacity in PwMS with mild to moderate disability. These results suggest that a more detailed assessment of the trunk is essential to plan an effective rehabilitation program for the protection and development of balance, functional mobility, and gait capacity in PwMS with mild to moderate disability.

Multipl Sklerozlu Hastalarda Gövde Motor Kontrolü ile Denge, Fonksiyonel Mobilite ve Yürüyüş Kapasitesi Arasındaki İlişkinin İncelenmesi

Öz:
Amaç: Gövde fonksiyonu denge, fonksiyonel mobilite ve yürüyüş kapasitesi için kritik öneme sahiptir. Multipl skleroz (MS) hastalarında gövde bozukluğu, denge, fonksiyonel mobilite ve yürüyüş kapasitesi etkilenmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, hafif-orta derecede özürlülüğü olan MS hastalarında gövde motor bozukluğu ile denge, fonksiyonel mobilite ve yürüyüş kapasitesi arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemekti. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma, yaş aralığı 18-65 olan 54 MS hastasında yapıldı. Özür düzeyi, genişletilmiş özürlülük durumu ölçeği ile belirlendi. Gövde motor bozukluğu, gövde bozukluk ölçeği (GBÖ) kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Denge, Mini-BESTest ve tek ayak üzerinde durma testi ile ölçüldü. Fonksiyonel mobilite, kalk ve yürü testi (TUG) ile değerlendirildi. Yürüyüş kapasitesi, iki dakika yürüme testi ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: GBÖ toplam puanının MS hastalarında Mini-BESTest, tek ayak üzerinde durma testleri (dominant ve dominant olmayan), TUG ve iki dakika yürüme testi ile korele olduğu bulundu (r=0,652/p<0,001, r=0,389/p=0,004, r=0,458/p<0,001, r=-0,534/p<0,001, r=0,471/p<0,001, sırasıyla). Sonuç: Çalışmamızda, hafif-orta derecede özürlülüğü olan MS hastalarında gövde motor bozukluğunun sadece denge ile değil, aynı zamanda fonksiyonel hareketlilik ve yürüme kapasitesi ile de ilişkili olduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu sonuçlar, gövdenin daha ayrıntılı değerlendirilmesinin, hafif-orta derecede özürlülüğü olan MS hastalarında denge, fonksiyonel mobilite ve yürüyüş kapasitesinin korunması ve geliştirilmesi için etkili bir rehabilitasyon programı planlamak amacıyla önemli olduğunu göstermektedir.
