1. He is microcephalic, blind, has severe curvature of the spine, scoliosis, no speech, cannot walk and weighs 3 stone.
2. The third study (in progress) is examining the experiences of people with a wide variety of physical impairments or disabling illnesses, including diabetes, polio, multiple sclerosis, scoliosis, Parkinson's disease, muscular dystrophy and various forms of arthritis.
3. Patients become bedridden only when they are terminally ill or if they are allowed to develop progressive scoliosis which results in intolerance of sitting.
4. The most common of these is the high incidence of arthritic and rheumatic problems; other specific examples include blindness and neurological problems associated with long-term diabetes; chronic pain resulting from building up immunity to certain drugs, such as morphine (various groups); chronic respiratory problems caused by spinal deformity (scoliosis); and a variety of physiological problems coming under the heading of "post-polio syndrome".
5. Some of the patients with a curve in excess of 100 were no longer able to sit because of the pelvic obliquity consequent on the scoliosis; they were bedridden not because of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy itself but because they had been allowed to develop such extensive spinal curves before referral to an orthopaedic muscle clinic.
6. Of 169 patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy referred to the orthopaedic muscle clinic at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital, 117 already had a scoliosis at the time of referral; three patients had a curve between 80 and 100 and eight patients had a curve in excess of 100.
7. Not only does spinal stabilisation for early scoliosis in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy maintain sitting balance but it is also associated with a slower deterioration in lung function.
