A home-based walking program using rhythmic auditory stimulation improves gait performance in patients with multiple sclerosis: a pilot study.

Background: Few interventions have been successful in improving gait dysfunction in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) has demonstrated positive results on gait performance in other neurologically impaired populations.

Objective: To measure the effects of RAS on quantitative walking parameters in ambulatory patients with MS.
