Study Summary

This trial tests a digital solution (ME&MG) for monitoring disabilities in people living with MG, to make assessments more accurate, reliable, and reproducible.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-60 with Myasthenia Gravis, who have general muscle weakness but are unlikely to need a respirator. Participants must test positive for anti-AChR autoantibodies, own a compatible smartphone, and be able to use the ME&MG app in English, French or Spanish. Pregnant women, those under legal supervision, with recent substance abuse or involved in other studies that could affect this one cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The ME&MG mobile application is being tested as an at-home self-assessment tool for monitoring disabilities caused by Myasthenia Gravis. The study aims to validate the app's accuracy compared to standard clinic tests and evaluate its safety and user satisfaction.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves using a digital application rather than medication or invasive procedures, traditional side effects are not expected. However, potential issues may include discomfort from frequent device use or stress from self-monitoring symptoms.
