Explaining the relationship of clinical presentation to the underlying disease by providing scientific rationales (25pts)

1- Ineffective breathing pattern is directly related to the spinal muscular atrophy since this disease affects all the muscles in the body and decrease its strength
so it’s related to the weakness in the intercostal muscles( muscles that support the chest wall) leaving the diaphragm as a primarily breathing muscle. This
will cause respiratory complications because the baby cannot be able to breath adequately or to cough normally which leads to a shortness of oxygen and a
carbon dioxide build up , resulting in hypoventilation. Also, the impaired physical mobility lead to shallow and ineffective respirations. This will force to increase
the accumulation of secretions leading to ineffective breathing pattern.

2- Altered nutrition is directly related to the spinal muscular atrophy because the muscles in the mouth and throat are weak, so the baby is not able to
swallow and suck. This causes a lack in vitamins and proteins because the baby is not breastfed and he cannot be able to get a good nutrition.

3- Impaired physical mobility is directly related to the spinal muscular atrophy because weakness and atrophied muscles leads to hypotonia (low muscle tone)
so the baby is hypoactive and he cannot able to move all of his extremities. It’s also related to altered nutrition because of low calcium and vitamin D that are
important for the bone growth and muscle contraction. The insufficient calcium causes the body to take calcium from the bones to ensure normal cell function,
which can lead to weakened bones and impaired physical mobility.

4- Ineffective coping of the parents is related to all baby’s diagnosis and situation since it is a new situation for help and still has knowledge gap and anxiety to
deal with the situation
