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.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
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;
Disqualifiers
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.
