Respiratory decline in patients with neuromuscular diseases and mitochondrial myopathies can be challenging to identify, especially because its early signs may be subtle and vary from person to person. However, knowing how to evaluate a patient’s respiratory function is key to improving outcomes and quality of life. Joining Dr. Charles Turck to discuss this importance and provide recommendations for optimizing respiratory care are Drs. Jason Ackrivo and Bethany Lussier. Dr. Ackrivo is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in Pulmonary, Allergy, and Critical Care at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, and Dr. Lussier is an Associate Professor of Internal Medicine at UT Southwestern Medical Center and a member of its Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine.
