| Popis: | Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a progressive disease that affects a population usually under 40 years of age. For a time, these people were advised to reduce their level of physical activity to reduce the risk of new outbreaks. Contrary to this, groups of people with MS have been involved in therapeutic physical activity programs and achieved similar benefits to those obtained by healthy people. Objective: The aim of this study was to characterize the physical therapy procedures and analyze the efficiency of group physiotherapy in these individuals. Method: Participated in this quasi-experiemental study 04 participants (37.2 ± 6 years, 7 ± 3 years of injury, 22.8 ± 3 kg/m2) with MS attending physiotherapy group in the CEAFIR FCT / UNESP. To characterize the functional capacity and motor skills of the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and Six-minute walk test (6MWT) were used, the perceived quality of life was assessed by SF-36. The evaluations took place before starting the exercise protocol group and after 18 sessions. 18 sessions were filmed for description of physical therapy procedures used during physical therapy sessions in groups. For statistical analysis GraphPad Prism 5 program (GraphPad Software Inc., San Diego, CA, USA) was used. Data normality was assessed using the Shapiro Wilk test and comparison of data was performed by paired t test (p |
