Augmented Reality-Based Dual-Task Training in People With Multiple Sclerosis
Sponsor: University of Sharjah
Summary
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common NDD affecting young people worldwide. MS can seriously affect quality of life and hinder daily functional activities. Therefore, living with MS is a daunting task for both patients and their families. With the prediction of an increase in life expectancy, it is also expected that MS will pose major challenges to healthcare providers in the UAE and globally in terms of its clinical management and financial implications. This proposed project aims to develop structured AR scenarios that integrate dual-tasking exercises commonly used in MS physiotherapy, specifically designed to meet the needs of PwMS. The primary goal is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and potential benefits of these AR scenarios as a rehabilitation tool for PwMS.

Augmented Reality Exercises
All participants in the experimental group will then be given a tutorial on how to perform the proposed exercises based on AR and they will be asked to familiarise themselves with the system. While the participants in the control group will be given a leaflet of physical exercises and they will be instructed by a physical therapist on the correct performance of these exercises
