Background. Multimodal rehabilitation improves symptoms in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS), but these effects diminish with time, despite the well-known positive impact of exercise on fatigue and mobility. We evaluated the efficacy of a 3-month, internet-based e-training
program (“MS Intakt”)1 on fatigue, quality of life and mobility in
PwMS after inpatient rehabilitation.
Methods.
Results:
Conclusion:
The results of our study demonstrate that the effects of rehabilitation
on fatigue, quality of life and mobility can be maintained with an
internet-based home training program for up to 3 – 6 months.
Further studies are needed to investigate whether longer-lasting
programs may have more sustained effects on these disabling
symptoms in PwMS.
