About this trial
In the sponsor's words
Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) may offer an innovative and highly effective format for delivering exercise programs to people with multiple sclerosis (MS). It is a fun, engaging and interactive video game that requires players to move their feet to targets while matching the rhythm of a song. In addition, DDR, involving both aerobic exercise and cognitive training, is an ideal intervention for improving cognitive functioning in those with MS. The purpose of this pilot study is to examine the use of DDR as a novel and highly specific exercise intervention to improve mobility and cognition among individuals with MS.
