Myopathies Classification and physiotherapy management.pptx
The document discusses myopathies, including their classification, clinical features, and management strategies. It outlines types such as muscular dystrophies and metabolic myopathies, detailing onset, progression, prognosis, and common complications. Management emphasizes exercise, mobility aids, dietary changes, and respiratory support to address associated challenges.

- 3. WHAT TO LOOKFOR WHEN ASSESING? ONSET- sudden/ gradual, adult/childhood RATE OF PROGRESSION DISTRIBUTION ANY OTHER SYSTEM INVOLVEMENT- Cardiac, pulmonary, CNS, Speech, hearing
- 5. Common Clinical features Proximal more than distal muscle weakness Contractures may occur Cardiomyopathy Respiratory complications
- 6. Muscular dystrophies Musculardystrophy most often results from defective or absent glycoproteins in the muscle membrane. This leads to muscle destruction and replacement of the contractile tissue with non contractile tissue.
- 7. I. Becker’s musculardystrophy Mutation of the dystrophin gene causing reduced dystrophin production. Onset – 11- 15 years Rate of progression- Slowly progressing Weakness of respiratory muscles and cardiomyopathy Prognosis- life expectation- 4th decade
- 8. Limb girdle musculardystrophy Onset- 8-15 years Rate of progression- early onset rapidly progressing Late onset- slowly progressing Both cardiac and pulmonary complications common. Prognosis- Early onset- wheelchair bound and death with respiratory complications Late onset- non life threatening and remain ambulant
- 9. Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy Onset- teenage Rate of progression- slowly progressive with certain periods of rapid increase in weakness Hearing loss, speech and swallowing difficulty. Rare chances of cardiomyopathy and respiratory complications. Prognosis- normal life expectancy
- 10. Metabolic myopathies Peoplewith metabolic myopathies lack certain enzymes involved in providing energy that helps muscles contract. They can be classified as: 1. mitochondrial myopathies 2. glycogen storage disease(GSD) 3. Fatty acid oxidation defects (FAODs)
- 11. 1. Mitochondrial myopathy Geneticmutations causes fault in aerobic cellular respiration hence, inability to produce energy. Build-up of raw materials initiation of anaerobic pathways By products- lactic acid build-up CELLULAR DAMAGE
