Phase N/A
  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)
Study Overview: This research looks at a muscle problem called Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy (FSHD), which makes muscles weak over time. Scientists want to see how well muscles work using special tools like MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and ultrasound. They hope to find out more about how this disease progresses and if these tools can help track changes over time. Key Points:
  • **Time Commitment:** The study lasts for one year. It involves up to two visits for patients and one or two visits for healthy volunteers.
  • **Participation:** Adults aged 18 to 70 can join if they speak Dutch and meet other health criteria.
  • **Exclusions:** People using wheelchairs, pregnant women, or those with certain medical devices can't participate.
Eligibility: If you're healthy or have FSHD, are between 18-70 years old, and can follow Dutch instructions, you might qualify. You shouldn’t have other muscle issues or need devices like pacemakers. Purpose: This study aims to improve understanding of FSHD and assess if ultrasound can be used as a marker to track the disease's changes.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?
