Evaluate the Effort Test as a Therapeutic Monitoring Tool in Acute Rhabdomyolyses

Plain-language summary

The prognosis of rhabdomyolyses related to hereditary diseases of metabolism is poor and treatments are only symptomatic. Rhabdomyolysis outbreaks are frequently precipitated by fever and fasting. They are unpredictable. In spite of the care of patient in an intensive care unit, the occurrence of renal failure and heart rhythm disorders explains a significant acute-phase mortality rate. There is an urgent need to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms of rhabdomyolyses related to hereditary diseases of metabolism, in order to identify specific treatments. Patients with rhabdomyolyses have few clinical signs outside of access. So there is a methodological difficulty in following a treatment test. There is an urgency to identify follow-up parameters in anticipation of new therapies. The objective of this study is to validate the hypothesis that effort test and cardiac function parameters are usable in the treatment monitoring for patients with acute rhabdomyolysis linked to a hereditary disease of metabolism and thus propose the effort test as an assessment tool for future clinical trials. In order to do so, the correlation between the results of the effort tests, performed to each patient with rhabdomyolysis related to a hereditary disease of metabolism, with the severity of the disease will be evaluated. This study is original because it opens up innovative prospects for monitoring in the field of hereditary diseases of metabolism, with the identification of new monitoring tools.
