Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
1. Past medical history relevant to pregnancy, delivery, complications in the immediate neonatal period, birth parameters, family history and any medical problems other than SMA (ie prematurity, etc)
2. Ongoing medical history indicating problems related to the following areas:
feeding, growth, respiratory status including use of cough assist and bilevel respiratory support, gastrointestinal issues, cardiac symptoms, neurologic symptoms or signs including muscle weakness, hospitalizations, ER visits, other adverse events
3. Assessment of dietary intake and use of nutritional supplements
4. Surgical history and ongoing documentation of assessments and need for g-tube, Nissen, tympanostomy, adenoidectomy/tonsillectomy or other airway surgeries, and orthopedic procedures
5. Caregiver obtained developmental history and documentation of newly acquired and/or loss of previously acquired gross motor skills at the time of each visit
6. Documentation of caregiver reported outcomes
7. Documentation of anthropometric measures, vital signs, general physical examination parameters
8. Neurological examination using standardized tools
9. Time to death, permanent invasive ventilation and/or need for \> 16 hours/day of bilevel respiratory support
10. Specific assessment of motor function as measured using age appropriate motor outcome measures such as: the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Tests of Neuromuscular Disorders (CHOP-INTEND), Test of Infant Motor Performance Screening Inventory, WHO motor milestones or others, and Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale for SMA Expanded for children 18 months and older
11. Electrophysiologic studies such as maximum ulnar compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude and area
12. Documentation of range of motion, development of limb contractures and/or presence of scoliosis, lordosis, hip dysplasia or other orthopedic outcomes
13. Additional optional exploratory biomarker assessments
14. DEXA measurements to assess body composition and bone density
15. The option to enroll in an autopsy study at the time of death to contribute samples to a research biorepository
Normal control subjects such as unaffected siblings will undergo these same measurements, as applicable. Unaffected parents' participation will be limited to collection and banking of blood and cell lines.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Affected Subjects <36 Mos. of Age
Infants and children 36 months of age and younger at time of enrollment who have been genetically diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)
The affected cohort will receive coordinated, multidisciplinary care including dietary intervention, respiratory monitoring, physical therapy, and genetic counseling. They will also undergo assessment of motor function, muscle action potential measurement, and body composition, as well as blood sample collection for DNA and biomarkers, and optional research skin biopsy.
No interventions assigned to this group
Unaffected Subjects <36 Mos. of Age
Infants and children 36 months of age and younger who are not affected with SMA
The unaffected group will undergo the same assessments as the affected group.
No interventions assigned to this group
Unaffected Family Members
Parents and siblings of any age, without genetic diagnosis of SMA, who have family members enrolled in either of the Affected Infants/Children/Adults cohorts.
The unaffected siblings will undergo the same assessments as the affected group, where age-appropriate. Unaffected parents' participation will be limited to blood sample collection and optional research skin biopsy.
No interventions assigned to this group
Affected Subjects >36 Mos. of Age
Children and adults \>36 months at time of enrollment who have been genetically diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
The older affected cohort will receive coordinated, multidisciplinary care including dietary intervention, respiratory monitoring, physical therapy, and genetic counseling. They will also undergo assessment of motor function, muscle action potential measurement, and body composition, as well as blood sample collection for DNA and biomarkers, and optional research skin biopsy. Where applicable, these participants will be considered Affected Control Subjects.
No interventions assigned to this group
