Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

My MS Toolkit is a web-based symptom self-management program for persons with multiple sclerosis.

This study is evaluating various aspects of My MS Toolkit and how it impacts symptom self-management in multiple sclerosis. The research team believe that the toolkit will be feasible, acceptable, and beneficial to participants.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Study participants will be asked to use a newly developed web-based symptom self-management program, called the My MS Toolkit, for 12 weeks. Participants will also be asked to complete online surveys throughout the study.

The My MS Toolkit includes 8 modules that describe symptom self-management strategies. Participants will explore the My MS Toolkit on their own, following the prompts and guides built into the program, and are encouraged to practice and apply the skills learned.

The study can be done from participants' homes using a reliable internet-connected device. No travel is required.
