Evaluating Dyspnea in Autoimmune Myasthenia Gravis "Why am I Short of Breath?"
NCT06866652
Summary
Individuals with MG (IwMG) experience shortness of breath that may be activity-related, occur at rest and even happen during sleep. Dyspnea is a complex, multidimensional and multifactorial symptom involving sensory perception, cognition and emotion. Identifying the cause(s) of dyspnea in MG may assist in finding therapeutic strategies, reducing discomfort, improving QoL and potentially limiting respiratory deterioration and incidence of MG crisis.
