Balance test study for people with multiple sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study will test whether a simple balance test (the Dubousset Functional Test) is reliable and accurate for people with MS. If you have mild disability and can stand without help, you may be able to join.
