SMA Europe, in collaboration with Roche, has now shared the meeting report from their “Nutrition in SMA” workshop, held back in November 2022.
The workshop allowed patients, caregivers and expert panellists to define current unmet needs and the next steps to address these gaps. The report comprises topics and discussions on feeding support, weight management and measurement of swallowing and feeding.
To find out more on this subject, you can watch our webinar about diet and nutrition in SMA, which was recorded back in July this year, with Maxwell (a young adult who has SMA Type 2) speaking to Dr Graeme O’Connor (Research Lead for Dietetics at GOSH).
You can also find further information in the Living with SMA sections of our website:
