In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) can affect people in many different ways, even in the same family. The symptoms that children experience can be different and more severe than adults. Prior studies in children have been limited because only a small number of children could participate. In this study, we hope to learn more about these differences and what causes them. This is an observational study conducted in participants' homes and does not require travel. Instead, we will use video calls to talk with children and their parents/guardians about DM1 symptoms and how it affects the child's muscles, heart, and brain. We'll send families an iPad and the other tools they need for the study. During the video call, kids will do some simple activities to see how their body moves and functions. Parents/guardians might need to help their child with some of these activities. After the video visit
