ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new type of occupational therapy for young boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a condition that affects muscle strength and movement. The researchers want to see if using fun, game-like activities (called gamification) can improve the daily lives, emotional health, and overall satisfaction of these young people compared to traditional therapy methods. This approach aims to find better ways to support adolescents with this condition.

To participate in the trial, boys aged 4 to 18 who have been diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy can apply, as long as they can read and write in Turkish and have a computer or tablet with internet access. Parents must agree to their child's participation and sign a consent form. Participants will engage in activities that are both enjoyable and therapeutic, helping them improve their skills and well-being. It’s a great opportunity to contribute to research that may lead to better treatments for Duchenne muscular dystrophy in the future.
