What this Trial Is About
In the project, it was aimed to evaluate the proprioceptive system in the disease, which is still mysterious and therefore has no curative treatment under current conditions, and to examine the effects of the video-based proprioceptive home exercise programme on trunk and limb control and daily life activity as well as trunk and limb control. The study was planned to include 20 patients with a definite diagnosis of ALS. Proprioceptive sensory examination will be performed again in these patients, who are currently being followed up with ALS diagnosis and whose physical examination including neurological examination has been performed in detail, and the "Revised Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale" (R-ALSFRS) will be applied to the patients. Subsequently, the patients will be followed up by applying a video-based proprioceptive home exercise programme 3 days a week for 8 weeks. At the end of the 8th week, a detailed neurological examination including proprioceptive sensation will be performed and the R-ALSFRS scale will be applied. In addition, ALS quality of life scale will be applied to the patients before and after the home programme. The data obtained after the treatment programme will be analysed and interpreted.
