Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP)CIDP is a progressive illness caused by an autoimmune attack on myelin, resulting in demyelination. It impacts sensory and motor symptoms. Patients often experience overall muscle weakness and damaged deep tendon reflexes that may be so profound that walking is inhibited. In severe cases where denervation of the respiratory muscles occurs, death may result. Although CIDP can occur at all ages, it is more prevalent in older individuals and in males.1,2Materials
