4 Objectives Review genetic basis of Spinal Muscular Atrophy Review underlying pulmonary natural history of SMA type 1 Review management options for SMA type 1 Review the impact of disease modifying treatments on disease

5 Spinal Muscular Atrophy 2 nd most common fatal autosomal recessive disease after Cystic Fibrosis 1 in births 1/40-1/60 carrier status Degenerative disorder of alpha motor neurons in spinal cord Proximal muscle weakness/paralysis

6 Spinal Muscular Atrophy Onset Highest Function Life Expectancy Type 1 < 6 months Never sit <2 years of age Type months Never walk 70% alive at 25 years Type 3 >18 months Stand and walk ~Normal Type 4.>21 years Stand and walk Normal

7 Natural History Cobben; Neuromuscular Disorders 2008

8 Clinical subdivisions SMA1 SMA 1A present at birth, joint contractures, respiratory compromise SMA 1B: onset of symptoms before 3 months SMA 1C: onset of symptoms after 3 months

9 Survival and SMA 1 type Death or 16 hrs/day ventilation Finkel; Neurology 2014

13 Options of Care Palliative Care Non-Invasive respiratory support Tracheostomy and ventilation

14 CTS Pediatric HMV Statement The option of invasive and noninvasive HMV support as well as the differences between therapeutic and palliative NIV should be presented to all parents of children with SMA. (Grade 1C) Children with SMA whose parents would like a respiratory opinion should be referred to an experienced center to discuss the treatment options. (Grade 1C) Amin et al 2017

15 CTS Pediatric HMV Statement The decision to recommend or not recommend ventilatory support to children with Type 1 and Type 2 SMA by the treating physician should be made on a case-by case basis after discussion with family and other caregivers, and a careful assessment of medical benefit as well as the effect on quality of life. (Grade 1C) Amin et al 2017

16 HMV and SMA1 in Canada Oskoui; Ped Pulm 2017

17 HMV and SMA1 in Canada Oskoui; Ped Pulm 2017

18 Palliative Care Palliative care options needs to be available as a real choice and option for families with new diagnosis of SMA type 1 Canada : 38% at time of diagnosis 15% at time of acute respiratory decompensation 8% based on family request 36% at variable times Oskoui; Ped Pulm 2017

19 Non-Invasive Support

20 Survival YOB YOB Death Death or Ventilation Oskoui; Neurology 2007

21 CTS Pediatric HMV Statement Assessment for sleep disordered breathing (ideally with a polysomnogram conducted as per the American Academy of Sleep Medicine standards) should be considered for children with SMA if this is in accordance with the child and family s goals of care. (Grade 1C) Amin et al 2017

22 Natural History

23 Chest Wall

24 Natural History

25 Respiratory Infections

26 Indications Non-Invasive Ventilation Early prophylactic Hospitalizations with Respiratory Failure Evidence of Sleep Disordered Breathing

27 Non-Invasive Ventilation 6 mths 18 mths Titrate Bipap for adequate chest wall expansion Usually needs ΔP >12 cm H20 From A. Simonds, Royal Brompton Hospital, UK / M. Schroth Wisonsin

28 High Span NIV 12 months: IPAP: 10, EPAP: 4 5 years: IPAP 16, EPAP: 4

29 High Span NIV 24/7 Ventilation; ΔP 17 cm H20 IPAP 20, EPAP 4; 11.4 hrs/day

30 High Span NIV 24/7 Ventilation; ΔP 17 cm H20 IPAP 20, EPAP 4; 11.4 hrs/day

31 Mechanical Cough Assist Pressures: +/- 40 cmh2o Ti/Te: 1-2 seconds 3-5 cycles CoughTrak Oscillations Use with percussion/other airway clearance techniques Recommend early initiation Habituation when the child is well

32 Gastrostomy Allows optimization of nutrition Prevent periods >4 hours of NPO +/- fundoplication

33 Gastrostomy Fundoplication Prevents aspiration risk, especially as non-invasive respiratory supports increase Extubation risk is minimal Durkin; J Pediatr Surg, 2008 No Fundoplication Can avoid general anesthesia Avoid complications of fundoplication Aspirations are rare

34 Acute Decompensations Management Principles Volume recruitment with effective ventilation Airway secretion mobilization and clearance Assessments SaO2 <95% is a marker of atelectasis/mucous plugging Resting heart rate >100 may be sign of increased distress Oxygen should not be the primary treatment of a low saturation

35 CTS Pediatric HMV Statement When and how to augment ventilatory support during acute illnesses should be made on a case-by-case basis for each patient by the treating physician, as there is no validated protocol at present. (Grade 1C) Amin et al 2017

36 Acute Decompensations Increased respiratory support needs Increased time on BiPAP Increased Pressures Increased airway clearance Cough assist q1-4 hours Increased nutritional demands Bach; Paed Resp Rev; 2008

37 CTS Pediatric HMV Statement If children are intubated, a protocol-led extubation, including the use of a mechanical in-exsufflation device and NIV, is recommended. (Grade 1C) Amin et al 2017

38 Bach; Chest 2010 Schroth, FMSA.org Extubation Protocol Extubation Criteria Afebrile SpO2 >94% on FiO2 of 0.21 Alert and Co-operative No atelectasis or collapse on chest radiograph Minimal airway suctioning required Extubation Protocol Do not wean to low pressure CPAP trials Avoid hypercapnia Avoid derecruitment Extubate to high span Bipap Aim for FiO2 of 0.21 with SaO2>94% Aim for normal CO2

39 SMA type 1 - Intubations 28 episodes of respiratory failure (24 for acute infectious) 48 intubation episodes

61 Summary SMA type 1 has a varying but severe natural history Treatment options to prolong survival Early high span NIV, airway clearance, nutrition Having an approach to sick management is essential New disease modifying treatments are available for SMA type 1 They are changing the progression of disease Significant resource challenges are awaiting us

63 Jessika is 3 and a half years old, she has spent approximately 30 days, sick, in hospital care since her diagnosis three years ago. Not a lot considering the bleak outlook that was painted for us of her not living past her second birthday. In our opinion that is due partly to our proactive use of NIV care. We wanted Jessika on the BiPap as soon as we were aware of NIV protocol, to keep her lungs as strong as possible, she uses it everyday during her nap and every night when she sleeps. We wanted to start a chest physio routine right away as well, which included breath-stacking, cough assist, suctioning and chest tapping. We did this everyday since we have had the machines, and now do her chest physio routine 3 times a day when Jessika is healthy and, on the odd occasions when she is sick, at least every 4 hours. Jessika is amazingly happy and intelligent and we appreciate every moment with her as does she. Not only has she surpassed our expectations for longevity but her speech is extremely advanced and clear, something that was not expected from an SMA type 1 child. And Jessika is a world away from being a type 2. She speaks and sings clearly and loudly even when she is wearing her BiPap. Every parent has the right to choose their own path, some choose proactive care, others choose palliative, some are totally lost. These parents should be able to make informed decisions though, based on real world knowledge of this disease and not just the textbook diagnosis. Due to NIV protocols, recent technological advances, and the hospital's approach to treating our children with SMA, we are seeing longer lifespans and greater quality of life. We should also mention that even though taking care of a child with SMA is a monumental task, think full time job with lots of overtime, it is made so much easier knowing that we have a great support network behind us which made up mostly of dedicated, open minded, caring health care professionals, such as the fantastic resp. team from the Mtl Children's. Anyone who wants to know more about Jessika is welcome to visit either her website or her facebook page.
