摘要：
Multiple sclerosis is chronic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system which affects brain, spinal cord and cranial nerves, mostly optic nerve. Consequence of the demielynation is slowing of the electrical impulse between the neurons and loss of different functions, especially upper and lower limb motoric functions. Relapses with different neurological deficits are clinical manifestation of the disease. Relaps is worsening, repetition or first presentation of central nervous dysfunctions longer then 24 hours. There is no enough tests for evaluating fine motor skills in multiple sclerosis patients. Nine hole peg test is one of the mostly used tests for evaluation of fine upper extremity motor functions in clinical settings. Twenty cents test is not so recognized in clinical settings and therefore the aim of the study was to compare these two tests and to show good correlation between them according to the level of disability (EDSS). At the end of our study and after the statistical data analysis we have shown that results of the 20 cents test are in good correlation with 9 hole peg test in evaluation of the upper extremity fine motor skills.
