AB  - Neuromuscular  diseases  comprise  a  diverse  group  of  disorders  that  vary  markedly  in  etiology,  rate  of  progression,  pattern  of  respiratory  involvement,  prognosis,  and  therapy.  Neuromuscular  disorders  impair  the  respiratory  system  as  a  vital  pump;  however,  depending  on  the  particular  disease,  the  respiratory  pump  may  be  impaired  at  the  level  of  the  central  nervous  system  (e.g.,  cerebral  cortex  or  brainstem),  spinal  cord,  peripheral  nerve,  neuromuscular  junction,  or  respiratory  muscle  (Table  84-1).
