Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
We hypothesize that an individualized incremental home based respiratory muscle training program will be feasible (good adherence and good acceptability) and will improve inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength (primary outcome measure) and patient reported breathing difficulties, the onset of respiratory infections and health related quality of life (secondary outcome measure) in patients with SMA.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Reporterd airway problems by patients Number of airway infections Health related quality of life. Evaluation experience trainingsperiod.
