Problemas terapéuticos en la Miastenia Gravis Dra. Beatriz Arciere
MGFA Clinical Class • Class I: Any ocular muscle weakness; may have weakness of eye closure. All other muscle strength is normal. • Class II: Mild weakness affecting muscles other than ocular muscles; may also have ocular muscle weakness of any severity. • IIa. Weakness affecting limb muscles, axial muscles, or both. May also have lesser but not predominant involvement of oropharyngeal muscles. • IIb. Predominantly affecting oropharyngeal, respiratory muscles, or both. May also have lesser or equal involvement of limb, axial muscles, or both. • Class III: Moderate weakness affecting muscles other than ocular muscles; may also have ocular muscle weakness of any severity. • IIIa. Weakness affecting limb muscles, axial muscles, or both. May also have lesser but not predominant involvement of oropharyngeal muscles. • IIIb. Predominantly affecting oropharyngeal, respiratory muscles, or both. May also have lesser or equal involvement of limb axial muscles, or both. • Class IV: Severe weakness affecting muscles other than ocular muscles; may also have ocular muscle weakness of any severity. • IVa. Weakness affecting limb muscles, axial muscles, or both. May also have lesser but not predominant involvement of oropharyngeal muscles. • IVb. Predominantly affecting oropharyngeal, respiratory muscles, or both. May also have lesser or equal involvement of limb, axial muscles, or both. • Class V: Defined as intubation, with or without mechanical ventilation, except when employed during routine postoperative management. The use of a feeding tube without intubation places the patient in class IVb.
