Study of muscle tiredness in congenital myopathies
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study follows patients with congenital myopathies to understand how their muscles get tired over time. It may help develop better treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 2 years or older for the general part, or 8 to 60 for the muscle tiredness part.
- You need a genetic diagnosis of a congenital myopathy (like central core disease/multiminicore disease, nemaline myopathy, or centronuclear myopathy).
- You must speak Dutch.
- You need to be able to travel to the study centers in Nijmegen or Utrecht.
- You must be willing and able to complete all measurements.
- For the tiredness part only: you may need to stop certain medicines (pyridostigmine or salbutamol) 24 hours before your visit.
