简要总结
if amifampridine can improve neuromuscular transmission in muscles previously injected with OnabotulinumtoxinA (BTX-A)
详细描述
Amifampridine may also be effective in treating the sequelae of botulinum toxin injections and this study will determine if neuromuscular transmission as measured by single fiber electromyography is improved in patients treated with BTX-A following administration of amifampridine

研究组 & 干预措施
Amifampridine will be orally administered to study participants
Amifampridine will be orally administered to study participants following completion of the baseline SFEMG. Post-dose SFEMG will commence at 30 minutes following dosing and will be completed within 30 minutes. The participant will remain under observation in the Diagnostic Neurology suite for 2 hours after dosing so it is estimated that the entire protocol including monitoring will be completed within 2-3 hours.
干预措施: Amifampridine (Drug)
