()
About this ebook
Neuromuscular Disorders in Children: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Management critically reviews current evidence of management approaches in the field of neuromuscular disorders (NMDs) in children. Uniquely, the book focusses on assessment as the cornerstone of management and highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach.
A key section describes the clinical picture, diagnosis standards and natural history of the most frequent neuromuscular disorders in children, including:
• muscular dystrophies
• spinal muscular atrophy
• congenital, metabolic, myotonic and inflammatory myopathies
• myasthenic syndromes
• and hereditary, acquired and inflammatory neuropathies.
Importantly, much of the book is dedicated to the latest management approaches in key clinical systems typically involved in NMDs. These include physical rehabilitation, orthopaedic, respiratory, gastrointestinal and cardiac management, as well as psychosocial aspects such as the transition to adulthood and sexual health needs. The latest advances in pharmaceutical therapies and future therapeutic strategies are also discussed.
