NCT ID NCT07664930

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to better understand how Pompe disease affects the nerves and muscles involved in breathing. Researchers will analyze nerve conduction and diaphragm activity in 20 adults with Pompe disease or unexplained respiratory failure. The goal is to identify patterns that could serve as early markers of respiratory involvement.
