About

"This study investigates the feasibility of tele-rehabilitation combined with targeted training for cognitive enhancement in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic illness that affects the central nervous system, often resulting in cognitive impairments that significantly impact quality of life. Tele-restoration provides an accessible and effective method for delivering therapeutic interventions, particularly beneficial for those with mobility limitations.

Full description

The study was a randomized controlled trial with multiple sclerosis patients divided into two groups: one receiving tele-rehabilitation-based task-specific training and the other receiving conventional care. The mediation group participated in structured cognitive training sessions conducted using a tele-rehabilitation platform, focusing on tasks designed to enhance memory, attention, and executive functions. Psychological assessments were conducted during the mediation period to measure improvements.
