Digital breathing exercises for children with muscular dystrophy
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial tests a 5-week digital breathing exercise program for children with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy. It aims to improve lung function using simple exercises done at home.

This study looks at breathing, chest and belly movement, and exercise ability in people with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy or Spinal Muscular Atrophy, as well as healthy people. The goal is to compare these functions to help understand how these diseases affect the body.
This study uses MRI scans and blood or other biomarkers to better understand muscular dystrophy in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). It may help researchers track disease changes and identify measurable markers over time.
This study follows boys with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy to learn more about how the disease progresses over time. It may help improve future care and treatments.
This study uses a new type of ultrasound scan to look at muscle health in people with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy. It aims to find better ways to track the disease over time.
This trial tests if a medicine that improves blood flow, combined with exercise, can help muscles in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It is for boys who can still walk and are on a stable steroid medication.
This study tests whether children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (a genetic muscle-weakening condition) can improve their breathing strength and function by doing guided exercises at home using video calls with a therapist. The goal is to help children breathe better and stay as active as possible.
