Feasibility of Remote Monitoring of Patients With Myasthenia Gravis
An observational study of Myasthenia Gravis (MG), run by George Washington University at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune neuromuscular disorder characterized by fluctuating weakness, which can worsen suddenly without a clear predictor. The hypothesis is that continuous monitoring of key aspects of patient physiology and activity coupled to rigorous telemedicine-performed examination has the potential… Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Pilot Study: Feasibility of Remote Monitoring of Patients With Myasthenia Gravis
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune neuromuscular disorder characterized by fluctuating weakness, which can worsen suddenly without a clear predictor. The hypothesis is that continuous monitoring of key aspects of patient physiology and activity coupled to rigorous telemedicine-performed examination has the potential to detect MG worsening which requires change in treatment with the benefit of avoiding need for hospitalization or emergent therapy. This study is to evaluate the reliability of the technology and patient compliance to the monitoring program

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Subject Study Completion (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07787247, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
