Optimal management of complications associated with achondroplasia.
[achondroplasia]
Achondroplasia
is
the
most
common
form
of
skeletal
dysplasia
,
resulting
in
disproportionate
short
stature
,
and
affects
over
250
,
000
people
worldwide
.
Individuals
with
achondroplasia
demonstrate
a
number
of
well-recognized
anatomical
features
that
impact
on
growth
and
development
,
with
a
complex
array
of
medical
issues
that
are
best
managed
through
a
multidisciplinary
team
approach
.
The
complexity
of
this
presentation
,
whereby
individual
impairments
may
impact
upon
multiple
activity
and
participation
areas
,
requires
consideration
and
discussion
under
a
broad
framework
to
gain
a
more
thorough
understanding
of
the
experience
of
this
condition
for
individuals
with
achondroplasia
.
This
paper
examines
the
general
literature
and
research
evidence
on
the
medical
and
health
aspects
of
individuals
with
achondroplasia
and
presents
a
pictorial
model
of
achondroplasia
based
on
The
International
Classification
of
Functioning
,
Disability
,
and
Health
(
ICF
)
.
An
expanded
model
of
the
ICF
will
be
used
to
review
and
present
the
current
literature
pertaining
to
the
musculoskeletal
,
neurological
,
cardiorespiratory
,
and
ear
,
nose
,
and
throat
impairments
and
complications
across
the
lifespan
,
with
discussion
on
the
impact
of
these
impairments
upon
activity
and
participation
performance
.
Further
research
is
required
to
fully
identify
factors
influencing
participation
and
to
help
develop
strategies
to
address
these
factors
.
