isoflurane and Muscular Dystrophy, Duchenne

isoflurane has been researched along with Muscular Dystrophy, Duchenne in 3 studies

Isoflurane: A stable, non-explosive inhalation anesthetic, relatively free from significant side effects.

Muscular Dystrophy, Duchenne: An X-linked recessive muscle disease caused by an inability to synthesize DYSTROPHIN, which is involved with maintaining the integrity of the sarcolemma. Muscle fibers undergo a process that features degeneration and regeneration. Clinical manifestations include proximal weakness in the first few years of life, pseudohypertrophy, cardiomyopathy (see MYOCARDIAL DISEASES), and an increased incidence of impaired mentation. Becker muscular dystrophy is a closely related condition featuring a later onset of disease (usually adolescence) and a slowly progressive course.
