Pompe Disease QMUS and EIM

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Pompe Disease
Interventions
Device: Muscle ultrasound
Other: Electrical Impedance Myography
Registration Number
NCT02742298
Lead Sponsor
Duke University
Brief Summary

Study Objectives:

1. Determine the correlation between quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS), electrical impedance myography (EIM) and currently accepted measures of physical function.

2. Determine the reliability of EIM measures performed in the home through use of a hand held device.

3. Determine if QMUS and EIM can detect pre-clinical changes in Pompe disease.
