About this trial
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease where immune cells attack the body, triggering an inflammatory response. A study comparing multifield FES and conventional FES on upper extremity motor skills and functional independence in MS patients will be conducted. Results suggest that both types of FES treatments normalize muscle tone, showing superior results compared to those without FES therapy. The study aims to compare the effects of both types on MS patients.
