dc.description.abstractPersons with Multiple Sclerosis (pwMS) frequently experience walking difficulties, often expressed as a slower walking speed during the 6 Minute Walking Test (6MWT). In addition, slower walking speeds are also related to higher levels of perceived exertion. PwMS are also known to have a higher energetic Cost of walking (Cw) and may experience muscle fatigue during prolonged walking. In this study, we aimed to explore changes in Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) and the Cw within participants during the 6MWT in pwMS. Additionally, concomitant changes in the mean and variability of gait characteristics and changes in muscle activation describing muscle fatigue were assessed.-
