Effect of Aquatic Therapy on Pulmonary Functions in Patients With Muscular Dystrophy

Muscular Dystrophy Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effect of Aquatic Therapy on Pulmonary Functions in Patients With Muscular Dystrophy

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed to assess the efficacy of aquatic therapy on pulmonary functions in patients with muscular dystrophy.

Clinical Trial Description

Muscular dystrophy (MD) is a group of muscle diseases that results in increasing weakening and breakdown of skeletal muscles over time. The disorders differ in which muscles are primarily affected, the degree of weakness, how fast they worsen, and when symptoms begin. Many people will eventually become unable to walk. Some types are also associated with problems in other organs. The muscular dystrophy group contains thirty different genetic disorders that are usually classified into nine main categories or types.

The signs and symptoms consistent with muscular dystrophy are: progressive muscular wasting, poor balance, scoliosis (curvature of the spine and the back), progressive inability to walk, waddling gait, Calf deformation, Limited range of movement,respiratory difficulty, cardiomyopathy and muscle spasms ;
