Digital measures of respiratory and upper limb function in spinal muscular atrophy: design, feasibility, reliability, and preliminary validity of a smartphone sensor-based assessment suite
NEUROMUSCULAR DISORDERS(2023)
摘要
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and paralysis. Motor function is monitored in the clinical setting using assessments including the 32-item Motor Function Measure (MFM-32), but changes in disease severity between clinical visits may be missed. Digital health technologies may assist evaluation of disease severity by bridging gaps between clinical visits. We developed a smartphone sensor-based assessment suite, comprising nine tasks, to assess motor and muscle function in people with SMA. We used data from the risdiplam phase 2 JEWELFISH trial to assess the test-retest reliability and convergent validity of each task. In the first 6 weeks, 116 eligible participants completed assessments on a median of 6.3 days per week. Eight of the nine tasks demonstrated good or excellent test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficients > 0.75 and > 0.9, respectively). Seven tasks showed a significant association ( P < 0.05) with related clinical measures of motor function (individual items from the MFM-32 or Revised Upper Limb Module scales) and seven showed significant association ( P < 0.05) with disease severity measured using the MFM-32 total score. This cross-sectional study supports the feasibility, reliability, and validity of using smartphone-based digital assessments to measure function in people living with SMA.(c) 2023 The Author(s).
