Many diseases in the pediatric population present with hypotonia and/or weakness. In order to ensure proper diagnosis and facilitate appropriate treatment, the nurse must be familial with those diseases which produce motor unit dysfunction in infants and children; among these conditions are infantile botulism and Guillain-Barré Syndrome. An understanding of the particular features which distinguish central from peripheral hypotonia is essential for the nurse. It is also important to obtain detailed histories and to ensure thorough physical examination. The nurse should also be aware of those laboratory studies that evaluate hypotonia and weakness, including the EMG, PNCT, muscle biopsy, and lumbar puncture.
许多儿科疾病都表现为肌张力减退和/或肌无力。为了确保正确诊断并促进适当治疗，护士必须熟悉那些导致婴幼儿运动单位功能障碍的疾病；其中包括婴儿肉毒中毒和吉兰-巴雷综合征。护士必须了解区分中枢性与周围性肌张力减退的特殊特征。获取详细病史并确保进行全面体格检查也很重要。护士还应了解那些评估肌张力减退和肌无力的实验室检查，包括肌电图、周围神经传导检查、肌肉活检和腰椎穿刺。
