Poliomyelitis is a highly contagious disease caused by a virus belonging to the PICORNAVIRIDAE family. Post-polio syndrome survives paralytic poliomyelitis and is characterized by a neuromuscular symptom complex that leads to impaired physical function. To systematically review the effect of any treatment on post-polio syndrome compared with placebo, usual care or no treatment. Post-polio syndrome is characterized by a worsening of existing or new health problems, most commonly muscle weakness and fatigue, general fatigue, and pain after a period of stability following an acute post-polio infection. Patients with post-polio syndrome should be advised to avoid both inactivity and overloading of weak muscles.
