It is followed by programmed cell death. It progresses with symmetrical weakness and atrophy of voluntary muscles throughout the body. It leads to a decrease in mobility with progressive loss of power, and pulmonary function impairment with the involvement of the respiratory muscles.\n\nFamilies who are confronted with these problems that arise after the birth of the baby or shortly after birth have a serious adaptation problem. When the course of the disease and its incurability are explained, patients and their families are under severe stress. Physical and emotional health is worse than normal healthy growing children's parents.\n\nThey need information, psychological and social support. The role of the family is very important in the life of children with disabilities. Family-oriented care; has been developed to facilitate the care process of children with special needs and to help their families. The main characteristics of the family-oriented approach are that families know their children in the best way, that each family is unique and different, and that family and community support is provided for the child's functionality. The assessment of family function helps the planning and management of treatment according to the concerns of the family. The education of the family, the socio-cultural structure and the psychological approach of the parents play an important role in the development of the child with SMA.\n\nThe aim of this study was to evaluate the care burden, needs and expectations of SMA parents and to reveal the problems clearly; so that this information can be used in rehabilitation planning and interpretation of results."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '18 Years', 'minimumAge': '1 Day', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Patients with SMA type 1, type 2 or type 3 between the ages of 0-18 and their caregivers.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
