Respiratory and Sleep Problems in Children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive neuromuscular condition that primarily affects boys and leads to gradual weakening of the skeletal muscles, including those responsible for breathing. As the condition advances, it can cause serious respiratory and sleep problems, particularly during the night.
