Integrative Group-based Cognitive Rehabilitation Efficacy in Multiple Sclerosis

The study design was a parallel-group randomized trial with equal randomization. Recruitment and enrollment were conducted between January 2013 and March 2013. At base-line, cognitive data was collected. Afterwards, the participants were randomly allocated to either the REHACOP group or the Control group. During 3 months the intervention with REHACOP program took place and at follow-up patients were again re-evaluated to evaluate the change in cognitive measure. Post-treatment assessment (finished by July 2013) was performed within the first week after completing the intervention. Optional enrollment in pre-post neuroimaging will also allow us to look at changes in the brain. Objective: To examine the efficacy of an integrative cognitive training program (REHACOP) to improve cognition of patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
