About this study

Official title: Translation of Motor Function to Daily Activity Performance in Individuals With SMA

This study will incorporate patients/ caregivers' perspectives to investigate the performance in daily activities of individuals with SMA and how it relates to their motor function abilities.

Read the detailed description

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease that causes progressive muscle weakness and atrophy and eventually leads to loss of function. Despite recent advances in disease-modifying treatments, SMA can still significantly impact an individual's functioning in daily living and quality of life. This study will incorporate patients/ caregivers' perspectives to investigate the performance in daily activities of individuals with SMA and how it relates to their motor function abilities.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Revised Upper Limb Module

    The physiotherapist will perform a serious of motor test to evaluate the patient's upper limb motor function. This test is to observe the manual ability on different tasks in sitting position, including drawing along the path, opening Ziploc container, or lifting weight. And the therapist will score for each item. The Revised Upper Limb Module (RULM) are consist of 19 items. It takes about 15-20 minutes for testing.

    Measured: 15-20 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Spinal Muscular Atrophy, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Hsi-Wen Huang, MSc (886-2-23123456 ext. 270409, lovelyeva39@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Revised Upper Limb Module (time frame: 15-20 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Jul 2023.
