Özet

Multiple Skleroz (MS), merkezi sinir sisteminde inflamasyon, demiyelinizasyon ve nöronal kayıpla seyreden kronik bir hastalıktır. Ataklar esnasındaki süreçte MS hastalarında ek semptomlar görülmektedir. Bu bölümde MS hastalarındaki yaygın morbidite nedenleri ve bu durumların yönetim stratejileri anlatılmaktadır.  Hastalarda en sık karşılaşılan belirtilerden biri yorgunluktur. Hastalığın kendisi ve eşlik eden durumlara bağlı gelişebilir. Bilişsel bozukluklar MS’in her evresinde ortaya çıkabilir ve bilgi işleme hızı, hafıza ve dikkat gibi alanlarda bozulmalar görülebilir. Depresyon ve anksiyete, yüksek prevalansa sahip olup psikososyal desteğin yanı sıra farmakolojik tedavi gerektirir. Ağrı, nöropatik veya nosiseptif kaynaklı olabilir; tedavi multidisipliner yaklaşım gerektirir. MS ile ilişkili hareket bozuklukları arasında huzursuz bacak sendromu, tremor, ataksi ve spastisite yer alır. Ayrıca üriner disfonksiyon, dışkılama problemleri ve cinsel işlev bozuklukları da sık görülür. Bu semptomlar, yaşam kalitesini ciddi biçimde etkiler. Tedavide farmakolojik yaklaşımların yanında egzersiz, psikoterapi ve diyet gibi destekleyici yöntemler de önemlidir. Erken tanı, düzenli değerlendirme ve bireye özgü yönetim planları, etkin semptom kontrolü açısından kritik öneme sahiptir.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, immune-mediated disorder of the central nervous system characterized by inflammation, demyelination, and neuronal loss. During disease exacerbations, patients often experience a range of additional symptoms. This chapter explores the most common morbidity-related manifestations observed in individuals with MS and outlines evidence-based management strategies. Fatigue represents one of the most prevalent symptoms and may be attributed to both the underlying disease process and comorbid conditions. Cognitive impairment can emerge at any stage of MS, typically affecting domains such as information processing speed, memory, and attention. Depression and anxiety are also frequently reported and require a combination of pharmacological treatment and psychosocial interventions. Pain in MS may be neuropathic or nociceptive in origin and necessitates a multidisciplinary therapeutic approach. Movement disorders associated with MS include restless legs syndrome, tremor, ataxia, and spasticity. Additionally, urinary dysfunction, bowel disturbances, and sexual dysfunction are common and significantly compromise quality of life. Alongside pharmacological interventions, supportive therapies such as physical exercise, psychotherapy, and nutritional strategies play a crucial role in symptom management. Early diagnosis, regular monitoring, and individualized treatment planning are essential components in optimizing patient outcomes and maintaining functional independence.
