Webinar: Frailty in Multiple Sclerosis: From hidden burden to targeted rehabilitation strategies
In this webinar, Dr. Tobia Zanotto and Dr. Jacob Sosnoff will unpack what frailty means in the MS context and how targeted rehabilitation strategies can improve outcomes for people living with MS.
Join Dr. Tobia Zanotto and Dr. Jacob Sosnoff for an important session on Frailty in Multiple Sclerosis (MS): From hidden burden to targeted rehabilitation strategies.
Understanding Frailty in MS
Frailty is a biological syndrome of decreased reserve and resilience across multiple physiologic systems. Although traditionally studied in geriatric populations, frailty is increasingly recognized as highly prevalent among people living with multiple sclerosis (MS), regardless of age or disability status. Individuals with MS have a two- to four-fold higher risk of frailty compared with community-dwelling older adults, and frailty is strongly associated with MS-related symptoms and adverse clinical outcomes.
What to expect
This webinar will review current evidence on frailty in MS, highlight emerging rehabilitation approaches, and identify critical gaps to guide future research and clinical practice.
