This study aimed to determine measurement properties of a modified 2MWT and a modified Rett syndrome-specific FMS-RS in Rett syndrome.

For most individuals, there is initial developmental progress followed by regression at around 6–30 months. The classic signs of RTT then become apparent.

This chapter reviews the prevalence, characteristics, and clinical management of orthopedic problems in RTT.

Quantifying individual's with Rett syndrome with the ability to walk, walking based activities and sedentary time, analyzing a variety of influences.

Our aims were to characterize the abnormal breathing patterns and abdominal bloating, investigate the distribution of these by age and mutation type and examine their impact and management from a caregiver perspective.
