Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this research was to determine the functional state and inability of multiple sclerosis(MS) patients. This study was performed at Hacettepe University Occupational Therapy and Neurology Units. Material and Methods: After identifying the demographic characteristics; pain, oedema, range of motion, muscle shortness, muscle strength, spasticity, coordination, sexual problems, Mini-Mental test and breathing tests were evaluated. Self-Rating Depression Scale, Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and Socio-Economie Scale were also used. Results: According to the test scores those rates were found: the majority of patients were housewives (27.7 %) and married, working ability (33.3 %) and economic state (77.7 %) were normal, upper and lower extremity muscle group strength was moderate (55.5 % and 41.6.4 % respectively), incoordination of the upper (44.4 %) and lower extremity was 45.4 %, there was minimal Mini-Mental test scores (44.4 %), variable EDSS scores (50 %), moderate degree depression (83.3 %), wide spread pain (55.5 %), superficial and combined breath pattern (83.3 % and 50 % respectively ) were present. Conclusion: The necessity of detailed functional assessment for the extensive physiotherapy and rehabilitation programs which apply to increased physical and psychosocial capacity in MS patients was demonstrated.

Özet

Amaç: Bu araştırma, Multiple Sklerozlu (MS) hastalardın özel fonksiyonel durumu ve yetersizliklerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmamız Hacettepe Üniversitesi İş ve Uğraşı Tedavisi ve Nöroloji Ünitelerinde yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmaya alınan 18 Multiple Sklerozlu hastaya demografik özellikleri belirlendikten sonra ağrı, ödem, normal eklem hareketleri, kısalıklar, kas kuvveti, spastisite, koordinasyon, solunum testleri ve Geliştirilmiş Yetersizlik Durum Skalası (Expanded Disability Status Scale-EDSS) değerlendirmeleri yapılmış; ayrıca Mini Mental Test, Self- Rating Depresyon Skalası, Sosyo-Ekonomik Skala ve seksüel belirtilerle ilgili bir anket uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Sonuçlar yüzde puanlarına göre incelendiğinde; hastaların çoğunun ev hanımı ( % 27.7) ve evli olduğu (% 61.1), çalışma yeteneği ( % 33.3) ve ekonomik durumun (% 77.7) normal olduğu, % 55.5'inde yaygın ağrı şikayeti olduğu, yüzeyel (% 83.3) ve kombine bir solunum paterni (% 50) gösterdikleri, % 55.5'inin üst ekstremite, %41.6 'sının alt ekstremite kas kuvvetinde orta değerler aldığı, % 44.4 'nün üst ekstremitelerde, % 45.4'nün de alt ekstremitelerinde koordinasyon bozukluğu olduğu; % 44.4 'nün mental yönden minimal etkilendiği, % 50'sinin EDSS puanlarının değişik derecelerde olduğu ve % 83.3 olguda orta şiddetli depresyon olduğu bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Multiple Sklerozda; fiziksel ve psikososyal yeterliliği artırmak amacıyla çok yönlü fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon programlarının başarısında, fonksiyonel durumun tüm yönleriyle detaylı değerlendirilmesinin gerekliliği ortaya çıkmıştır.
