Physical therapists will develop an individualized program lasting 12 weeks depending on the needs of a given patient. Veterans will be seen 1 day/week via clinical video teleconferencing (CVT) for treatment. The rehabilitation protocol will last approximately 30 minutes with activities that are individualized to meet the participant's needs (range of motion, balance, strengthening, endurance, and functional activities). Patients assigned to telerehabilitation will utilize the VITAL rehab unit with Jintronix exercise package. Exercises, progression and rest periods will be administered and adjusted remotely by the physical therapist using a web-based clinical portal.

Participants complete a standard physical therapy evaluation in-person. They are then provided telerehabilitation equipment for the telerehabilitation intervention. This intervention utilizes an Xbox Kinect sensor and tablet-based exercise software called Jintronix. The Jintronix exercise library includes an array of exercise activity options for varying functional levels. Exercise activities could be completed in sitting or standing postures and includes activities which focused on active range of motion, strength, balance, or calisthenic movements. Each activity requires the participant to complete a goal-directed game or replicate movements of an on-screen avatar. The therapist will adjust and progress the home exercise program using information provided by the Jintronix and the participant's verbal reports during clinical video teleconferencing. At the end of the intervention, the therapist will complete in-person discharge assessments.

This questionnaire has 12 items and measures self-reported walking ability in MS. The questions assess the limitations of a patient's walking due to MS during the past 2 weeks. Each item ranges from 1 to 5 and the higher the sum, the more severe the degree of limitation.

The test involves assessments of clinician rated strength tests of standing balance, timed 3 meter walk, and five chair rise repetitions. The rating scale starts at "0" indicating no performance or low performance ranging to as score of "4" indicating high performance. The rating scale ranges from 0 to 12.

Patient reported estimates of commute to medical facility.
