Sensitivity to change and responsiveness of lowering to the ground and rising from the ground evaluation in Duchenne muscular dystrophy: one-year longitudinal observation
Abstract:BACKGROUND: The progressive weakness of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) interferes with performance. This study investigated the sensitivity to change and the responsiveness of sitting and standing from the ground in patients with DMD.
AIM: The aim was to assess the sensitivity to change and the responsiveness of lowering to/ rising from the ground, in three, six, nine, and twelve month-evaluation intervals and to define the most suitable reevaluation intervals for ambulatory patients with DMD.
