This video explains Charcot-Marie Tooth Disease (a #Hereditary #Motor and #Sensory #Neuropathy). I talk about the genetics, the neurophysiology and how they are integrated into it's classification.
I also describe a number of it's most common forms - #CMT1A (#PMP-22 duplication), CMT1B (MPZ), CMT2, Dejerine-Sottas Syndrome (CMT3) which I misspelled on the scrolling text - apologies, CMT4, CMT-X (Connexin-32) and HMSN 5,6,7 and Intermediate-CMT(AD/AR).
The video also provides a number of links to the CMT Association in the USA (www.cmtausa.org) and CMT-UK (www.cmt.org.uk) webpages, specifically regarding medications to avoid which can be found by following these links http://www.cmtausa.org/resource-cente... and http://cmt.org.uk/professionals/neuro...
