  • OBJECTIVE:
    To develop formal consensus-based guidance for the management of myasthenia gravis (MG).


  • METHODS:
    In October 2013, the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America appointed a Task Force to develop treatment guidance for MG, and a panel of 15 international experts was convened.
    The RAND/UCLA appropriateness methodology was used to develop consensus guidance statements. Definitions were developed for goals of treatment, minimal manifestations, remission, ocular MG, impending crisis, crisis, and refractory MG.
    An in-person panel meeting then determined 7 treatment topics to be addressed. Initial guidance statements were developed from literature summaries.
    Three rounds of anonymous e-mail votes were used to attain consensus on guidance statements modified on the basis of panel input.


  • RESULTS:
    Guidance statements were developed for symptomatic and immunosuppressive treatments, IV immunoglobulin and plasma exchange, management of impending and manifest myasthenic crisis, thymectomy, juvenile MG, MG associated with antibodies to muscle-specific tyrosine kinase, and MG in pregnancy.


  • CONCLUSION:
    This is an international formal consensus of MG experts intended to be a guide for clinicians caring for patients with MG worldwide.
