Feeding difficulties- MedGen UID:
- 65429
- •Concept ID:
- C0232466
- •
- Finding
Impaired ability to eat related to problems gathering food and getting ready to suck, chew, or swallow it.
Hypotonia- MedGen UID:
- 10133
- •Concept ID:
- C0026827
- •
- Finding
Hypotonia is an abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle). Even when relaxed, muscles have a continuous and passive partial contraction which provides some resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia thus manifests as diminished resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia is not the same as muscle weakness, although the two conditions can co-exist.
Myopathy- MedGen UID:
- 10135
- •Concept ID:
- C0026848
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A disorder of muscle unrelated to impairment of innervation or neuromuscular junction.
Muscle weakness- MedGen UID:
- 57735
- •Concept ID:
- C0151786
- •
- Finding
Reduced strength of muscles.
Neonatal hypotonia- MedGen UID:
- 412209
- •Concept ID:
- C2267233
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Muscular hypotonia (abnormally low muscle tone) manifesting in the neonatal period.
EMG: decremental response of compound muscle action potential to repetitive nerve stimulation- MedGen UID:
- 892749
- •Concept ID:
- C4021728
- •
- Finding
A compound muscle action potential (CMAP) is a type of electromyography (EMG). CMAP refers to a group of almost simultaneous action potentials from several muscle fibers in the same area evoked by stimulation of the supplying motor nerve and are recorded as one multipeaked summated action potential. This abnormality refers to a greater than normal decrease in the amplitude during the course of the investigation.
Respiratory insufficiency- MedGen UID:
- 11197
- •Concept ID:
- C0035229
- •
- Pathologic Function
Impairment of gas exchange within the lungs secondary to a disease process, neoplasm, or trauma, possibly resulting in hypoxia, hypercarbia, or both, but not requiring intubation or mechanical ventilation. Patients are normally managed with pharmaceutical therapy, supplemental oxygen, or both.
Anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody positivity- MedGen UID:
- 868186
- •Concept ID:
- C4022578
- •
- Finding
The presence of autoantibodies (immunoglobulins) in the blood circulation that react against ganglioside-monosialic acid (GM1), which is a type of glycosphingolipid with one sialic acid. GM1 is located on the outer layer of the plasma membrane, and plays a vital role in neurogenesis, nerve development, differentiation and repair after injury.
