Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Management by Sania Rashid is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked condition that typically presents in males between ages 2-5 with progressive muscle weakness and loss of ambulation by age 10-12. Comprehensive physiotherapy management aims to maintain muscle strength, prevent deformities, and improve quality of life through therapeutic exercises, stretching, postural support, and respiratory care. Education and support for families and caregivers are also essential components of the management plan.
