Multiple sclerosis is a slowly progressive disease, immunosuppressants and other drugs can delay the progression and progression of the disease, but the most patients will be left with varying degrees of neurological deficit symptoms, such as muscle weakness, muscle spasm, ataxia, sensory impairment, dysphagia, cognitive dysfunction, psychological disorders, etc. From the early stage of the disease to the stage of disease progression, professional rehabilitation treatment can reduce the functional dysfunction of multiple sclerosis patients, improve neurological function, and reduce family and social burdens. With the development of various new rehabilitation technologies such as transcranial magnetic stimulation, virtual reality technology, robot-assisted gait, telerehabilitation and transcranial direct current stimulation, the advantages of rehabilitation therapy in multiple sclerosis treatment have been further established, and more treatment means have also been provided for patients.
多发性硬化症是一种进展缓慢的疾病,免疫抑制剂和其他药物可以延缓疾病的进展和恶化,但大多数患者会留下不同程度的神经功能缺损症状,如肌肉无力、肌肉痉挛、共济失调、感觉障碍、吞咽困难、认知功能障碍、心理障碍等。从疾病早期到疾病进展阶段,专业的康复治疗可以减少多发性硬化症患者的功能障碍,改善神经功能,减轻家庭和社会负担。随着经颅磁刺激、虚拟现实技术、机器人辅助步态、远程康复和经颅直流电刺激等各种新技术的发展,康复治疗在多发性硬化症治疗中的优势进一步得到确立,也为患者提供了更多的治疗手段。
