Clinical Management of Patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Dear Colleagues,

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the central nervous system with a wide variety of symptoms and different disease courses. The comprehensive management of MS typically involves the treatment of acute relapses and of the course of the disease, symptoms management, motor and cognitive rehabilitation programs, and support in the psychosocial dimension. This Special Issue aims to comprehensively explore the world of clinical management for people with MS. It could serve as a source for in-depth clinical updates and discussions on the current challenges of MS. The themes of this Special Issue span from treatment with disease-modifying therapies to motor and cognitive rehabilitation strategies, as well as the evaluation and management of psychosocial dimensions of living with MS. Additionally, it focuses on the need for multidisciplinary approaches, favoring an interdisciplinary dialogue. Furthermore, along with other aspects, the focus on patient-reported outcomes and the use of telemedicine are useful for monitoring people with MS and for 'bringing them closer' to their neurologist. They represent essential steps towards personalized medicine and a holistic approach to MS.
