Data Collection of Standard Care of Patients in the EMG Section : Data Collection of Standard Care of Patients in the EMG Section

PROTOCOL SUMMARYTitle:Data Collection for Standard Care of Patients in the EMG SectionStudy Description:This protocol is designed to provide a repository of information for future hypothesis generation. We will be evaluating patients with neuromuscular disorders that are not currently enrolled in any NIH protocols with procedures performed in the EMG Lab. The procedures include standard neurophysiological studies of EMG, autonomic nervous system (ANS) testing, and neuromuscular ultrasound (NMUS) as deemed necessary for appropriate diagnostic and clinical status testing. This will allow us to investigate into the problems of these patients with the purpose of furthering general knowledge of neuromuscular disorders and enhancing our EMG capabilities. Our ability to evaluate patients with a wide variety of neuromuscular diseases is also critical to maintaining our accreditation with the clinical neurophysiology fellowship programs and training our fellows to be competent physicians, as well as for keeping all staff, including senior staff, up-to-date and familiar with the evaluation of patients with a wide spectrum of diseases. We may also be able to later refer these patients into treatment protocols or re-evaluate patients that are no longer in an active NINDS protocol. This protocol will be valuable resource to the community by engendering greater interaction with the local neurologists and clinics as well as providing certain types of neurophysiological testing that are not readily available in the community.Objectives:To provide a repository of information on enrolled participants to allow for hypothesis generation in future researchTo add value to the Clinical Neurophysiology training programs by providing consult, diagnostic tests, and medical follow-up of participantsEndpoints:To provide a repository of information on enrolled participants to allow for hypothesis generation in future research.Study Population:The study population includes patients, male or female, who are age 18 or older with no upper age limit restrictions. The study population will be limited to 200. They may have neuromuscular disorder or neurodegenerative disorder.Description of Sites/Facilities Enrolling Participants:NINDS Intramural Clinical Research Program located in the NIH Clinical Center, Bethesda, MD.Study Duration:Participant Duration:The current estimated study duration is 10 years. An extension to this study duration may be requested in the future via an amendment.There is no specific time limitation on participant visits, though many participants may have only 1-2 visits..
