Control within a month, neurology, treatment of neurological diseases

Monitoring patients with ALS within a month allows doctors to monitor the progression of the disease, assess changes in functional abilities and adjust therapeutic approaches. Regular check-ups are crucial for timely recognition of complications and change of therapy.

During follow-up, the doctor again uses scales such as the ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R), the Vital Capacity Test, and the Norris Scale to assess the patient's symptom progression and functional abilities.

Depending on the current symptoms, the doctor may recommend additional tests (such as MRI or EMNG) or prescribe new therapies.

Consultations with other specialists (physiotherapist, respiratory therapist, psychologist) may be part of the examination to ensure complete patient care.

The control lasts about 30-60 minutes, depending on the number of scales applied and the patient's need for additional tests or consultations.
