Brief Summary:
Fatigue in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a problem that is seen without physical exertion and affects the majority of patients. In studies on fatigue in the literature, it has been seen that subjective methods are frequently used by using evaluation scales based on patient statements, but objective evaluation methods are not yet sufficient. This study was planned to compare the measurement results by evaluating fatigue subjectively, objectively and cognitively in MS patients.
Detailed Description:
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, demyelinating, autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. It is characterized by clinical symptoms arising from lesions in the brain, spinal cord or optic nerves. Although fatigue is one of the most common and most disabling problems of individuals with MS, it is not yet fully understood. This affects the treatment and disease process in MS. Despite studies to elucidate the pathogenic mechanisms of fatigue, available information is limited. Several factors contribute to the limited fatigue research, but the most important is that 'fatigue' is often not clearly defined or meaningful measures cannot be made in clinical/research settings. The first step in the evaluation of fatigue, which is a complex symptom, is to start with the identification and analysis of the factors that may cause fatigue, and to comprehensively question the factors that may be effective and the patient's history, and to evaluate the fatigue subjectively and objectively after the comprehensive patient history. The fatigue of patients diagnosed with MS will be evaluated subjectively, objectively and cognitively. Other information about the disease of the patients will be recorded. Subjective fatigue assessment methods, objective fatigue assessment methods and cognitive fatigue assessment methods will be applied.
