Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
A 10% improvement in functional capacity, assessed by the incremental walking test, is expected in individuals with mucopolysaccharidosis. Data were collected before and after a 16-week physical rehabilitation program. 16-week physical rehabilitation program

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
An improvement in quality of life is expected, as assessed using the Quality of Life Assessment Questionnaire – Short Form (36 items)
