About
In an RCT, the effect of the MOTOmed movement trainer (Reck, Germany) on spasticity and physical function in pwMS with EDSS score between 4,5 and 7 is investigated. All subjects exercise at home and are supervised and supported by an exercise therapist via an online platform.
We compare the effect of a 12 week passive, motor-driven movement therapy (VG1) to an intermittent active and passive training (VG2). After 12 weeks, VG1 continues with an active training including strengthening exercises for another 12 weeks. VG2 does not receive any intervention in the second study phase.
