P.375Does rhythmic auditory stimulation influence walking speed in the 6-minute walk test in patients with myasthenia gravis?

The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) is widely used in the clinic to measure treatment efficacy and disease progression in patients with neuromuscular diseases and is found valid and reliable to measure decrease in walking speed. 2) Rhythmic auditory stimulation has repeatedly been shown to improve gait parameters in individuals with neurologic impairment. The aim of this ongoing study is to investigate if rhythmic auditory stimulation can influence walking speed, during a 6MWT in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG).
