Brief Summary:
This study aims to investigate the relationship between urinary incontinence severity and surface electromyography (EMG) findings in women with multiple sclerosis. It will also examine the association of urinary incontinence with disability, quality of life, physical activity, and fatigue.
Detailed Description:
This study investigates the relationship between urinary incontinence (UI) severity and pelvic floor muscle activity in women with multiple sclerosis (MS). UI is common in MS and negatively affects quality of life, physical activity, and social participation. The study also explores how UI severity is associated with disability, fatigue, and overall quality of life.
Participants' demographic and clinical information, including age, disease duration, MS type, and disability level (measured by the Expanded Disability Status Scale, EDSS), will be recorded. Standardized questionnaires will assess urinary symptoms, their impact on daily life, physical activity, and fatigue. Pelvic floor muscle activity will be evaluated using surface electromyography (EMG) with biofeedback, conducted by trained physiotherapists.
The study will be conducted at the Pelvic Floor Health Center and is planned as a cross-sectional study. All assessments, including questionnaires and EMG measurements, are expected to take approximately 45 minutes per participant. Findings from this study aim to improve understanding of UI in women with MS and guide future interventions.
