What are the Treatment Options for Neonatal Myasthenia Gravis?
Treatment of NMG focuses on supportive care, as the condition is usually self-limiting. Key components of management include:
- Respiratory support: May include supplemental oxygen or mechanical ventilation in severe cases. - Feeding support: Tube feeding might be necessary if the infant has significant feeding difficulties. - Medications: Cholinesterase inhibitors like pyridostigmine can be used to improve muscle strength temporarily.
