Comparison of different telerehabilitation protocols for urogenital symptoms in females with multiple sclerosis: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: Telerehabilitation has been suggested to be equally effective than in-person rehabilitation, and could be helpful to increase participation and reduce barriers. People with multiple sclerosis (MS) often present urogenital dysfunctions, impairing independence and quality of life (QoL). Since the different available telerehabilitation protocols, the present study aimed to compare a live video urogenital rehabilitation intervention protocol (REMOTE) with a home-based pre-recorded video protocol (SELF). A randomized-controlled trial was performed, with 14 females with MS being allocated in the REMOTE group (36 ± 9 y) and 14 females in the SELF group (37 ± 7 y).
