About this trial

In the sponsor's words

This project's overall aim is to develop, deliver, and evaluate feasibility of a fall prevention program for ambulatory and non-ambulatory people with multiple sclerosis. The program will use a comprehensive intervention approach to address a variety of fall risk factors, and utilise self-management strategies. Specific aims are to 1. develop a fall prevention program, that addresses diverse fall risk factors and utilises self-management strategies, for ambulatory and non-ambulatory people with multiple sclerosis using a co-design process. 2. To examine feasibility, acceptability, fidelity, and potential outcome of the online, co-designed self-management fall prevention intervention for ambulatory and non-ambulatory people with multiple sclerosis, and to examine feasibility of the recruitment process, the data collection procedures, and the outcome measures.
