ClinConnect Summary

The Congenital Muscle Disease Study, also known as CMDPROS, is a long-term research project aimed at understanding various types of congenital muscular dystrophy and related conditions. Over the next 10 years, researchers will collect information from patients and their families to track health outcomes and identify any side effects from treatments. By registering in the Congenital Muscle Disease International Registry (CMDIR) at www.cmdir.org, participants can help build a global database that will aid in raising awareness, improving care standards, and potentially leading to new treatments for these conditions.

To be eligible for this study, individuals must have specific types of congenital muscular dystrophy, congenital myopathy, or congenital myasthenic syndrome. Participants will be asked to fill out a survey and provide medical records related to their diagnosis and treatment. Importantly, there is no need to travel for this study, making it easier for families to participate. Your involvement can significantly contribute to the understanding and future management of these muscle diseases.
