| Why carry out this study? |
| Adults with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) experience significant fatigue. |
| The objective of this study was to measure fatigue in an adult SMA population using a variety of instruments. |
| What was learned from the study? |
| The instruments used to measure perceived fatigue did not find a consistent relationship between SMA severity and fatigue. |
| An SMA-specific scale is needed to evaluate differences in fatigue impact across the SMA population. |
