Abstract

Twenty-one physical and occupational therapists from the USA and Europe (Italy, United Kingdom and Netherlands) met in Dallas, Texas USA on October 16 and 17, 2016. The purpose of this meeting was to review the current landscape of rehabilitation management and clinical outcome measures for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The workshop was organized into three sessions entitled: (1) Rehabilitation and Musculoskeletal Considerations; (2) SMA Clinical Outcome Measures; and (3) Rehabilitation Devices for Evaluation and Treatment. A closing session was included to summarize the meeting topics, next steps and proposed action items.
