Multipl skleroz enerji koruma yorgunluk aktivite performansı
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of energy conservation education on fatigue
and occupational performance in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). Material and Methods: The study
included 4 individuals with MS. Energy conservation education was given in a total of 8 sessions, 2 sessions
per week for 4 weeks. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure was used for determining activity
performance. Fatigue Impact Scale and Fatigue Severity Scale were used for assessing fatigue. Scales were
used again at the end of the 8 sessions and examined the effectiveness of the education. Results: There was
no statistically significant difference between the first and last measurement in the results of our study , reduction
in fatigue scores, and increase in activity performance and satisfaction. Conclusion: Fatigue is a very common
symptom that affects the whole life of an individual in MS and can affect the implementation of treatment
programs negatively. Postive effects of energy conservation education on fatigue, occupational performance
and satisfaction in individuals with MS was seen in this study. Therefore, it would be useful to include energy
conservation education while MS treatment programs are planned. There is a need for controlled and longterm
follow-up studies involving larger sample groups
