简要总结
The study is a follow-up study on children with acute flaccid paresis associated with enterovirus D68 infection. Only children living in Europe are eligible. The study aim is to clarify the outcome of the disease and investigate possible clinical correlation with outcome, including initial severity, demographic characteristics, treatment and MRI findings.
详细描述
Title: Clinical observational follow-up study of children with Acute Flaccid Myelitis associated with EV-D68 infection- a cross European collaboration.
Study objectives: To study the clinical outcome and function of patients with Acute Flaccid Myelitis associated with enterovirus (EV)-D68 infection after 1 to 3 years, in order to assist clinicians in providing prognoses for patients and to guide further investigation.
Primary objective will be:
• Functional assessment using the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale (HFMS) -score at follow up; 1, 2 and three years depending on time of debut
Secondary objectives are to describe these secondary outcomes and their changes over time, from onset to 1, 2 and 3 years, depending on time of debut:

The scale is a 33 items evaluation (0, 1 or 2 points in each item) and results in an overall functional score. Range: 0-66, with a higher score reflecting better performance. No sub-scores will be used.
