A significant proportion of polio survivors experience muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, new muscle weakness, and fatigue. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of manifestations among patients with post-polio syndrome.<\/p>\n Aim: <\/strong>To observe the prevalence of clinical manifestations in post-polio syndrome individuals using An Index of Post-Polio Sequelae.<\/p>\n Methodology: <\/strong>In this observational study, 90 participants were enrolled following a thorough evaluation of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Consent was secured before the assessment. We assess the presence and severity of post-polio manifestations by an Index of post-polio sequelae. Data was analysed using Microsoft Excel.<\/p>\n Study design: \u00a0<\/strong>An observational study.<\/p>\n Result: <\/strong>Study revealed that muscle weakness in involved muscle (100%) and muscle atrophy (100%) were the most prominent manifestations among total participants, contractures were observed in 94.40% individuals, muscle weakness in uninvolved muscle (55.6%), 56.6% experienced muscle pain, 42.2% reported joint pain, 30% suffered fatigue, 27.7% participants had breathing problems, 13.3% faced sleep disturbance, difficulty in swallowing (2.2%) and carpal tunnel syndrome (1.11%) identified as the least prevalent manifestations. In this study, we also observed that among the three factors- pain, atrophy, and bulbar, the severity of the atrophy factor was the highest amongst individuals with Post Polio Syndrome.<\/p>\n Conclusion: <\/strong>The study highlights the predominant musculoskeletal and systemic manifestations, including muscle weakness, atrophy, and contractures which significantly impair mobility and quality of life. Progressive weakening of uninvolved muscles and limbs, pain, and fatigue hinder daily activities, leading to social hesitation.<\/p>\n Key Words<\/strong>: <\/strong>Poliomyelitis, Index of Post-Polio Sequelae, Anterior Horn Cell, Neurological conditions, post-polio syndrome, PPRP.<\/p>\n \u00a0REFERENCES<\/strong><\/p>\n [1].
