OBJECTIVE: To assess the effectiveness of rehabilitation, highlighting the role of Occupational Therapy, in people with multiple sclerosis, in terms of disability, fatigue and quality of life.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: A literature search was carried out in the BVS, Cochrane, OT-Seeker, PubMed and PEDro databases.

INCLUSION CRITERIA: Controlled clinical trials published between January 2011 and April 2019 in Spanish or English with a score of ≥5 on the PEDro scale whose purpose was rehabilitation through the use of assistive technology, skills training, vestibular rehabilitation, behaviour modification, therapeutic education or specific Occupational Therapy interventions.

RESULTS: A total of 16 studies (1,279 subjects) were included. Rehabilitation improved patients' fatigue and disability and slightly enhanced their quality of life.

CONCLUSIONS: Rehabilitation can provide benefits to the performance of people with multiple sclerosis by reducing their perceived fatigue and disability.

LIMITATIONS: The heterogeneity of the sample, the type and duration of the interventions and variability of the instruments for measuring results.
