RECRUITINGOBSERVATIONAL
Observational Study to Observe Variations of Gait Parameters in Patients With Neuromuscular Diseases
Observational Study for the Identification of Fatigue and Gait Biomarkers in Populations With Neuromuscular Pathologies in the Clinical Context and Daily Life
About This Trial
This study has the general objective of observing walking parameters during a clinical test to objectively estimate fatigue in patients with neuromuscular diseases. Furthermore, the investigators want to evaluate the feasibility of collecting physical activity in daily life conditions during a one-week monitoring period using a wearable sensor.
Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)
Who May Qualify:
- Ambulant adult patients with genetic diagnosis of muscular dystrophy/myopathy (dystrophinopathies, muscular dystrophies and congenital and non-congenital myopathies), of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and with molecular diagnosis of Charcot-Marie Tooth 1 or 2.
- independent walking, even with assistance;
Who Should NOT Join This Trial:
- Dilated or ischemic heart disease with moderate impairment;
- Chronic respiratory failure: forced vital capacity (FVC) \< 40%; more than 5% of nocturnal time spent with peripheral oxygen saturation levels \< 90.
Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
