Abstract

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) are autoimmune inflammatory disorders accompanied by central nervous system damage, widespread immunemediated demyelination, and axonal damage, involving mainly the optic nerves, spinal cord, and area postrema. The diagnostic capabilities, administration and routing of patients, and therapeutic approaches to this disease need to be improved. During several expert councils held in 2019–2021 in different regions of the Russian Federation, we discussed multiple issues related to various aspects of medical care for patients with NMOSDs. As a result, the experts developed further steps necessary to improve the medical care to these patients: to write and publish clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of NMOSDs; to consider the possibility of optimizing the NMOSDs diagnostic program including the aquaporin-4 antibodies (AQP4-IgG) testing; to evaluate the implementation of a set of measures aimed at including the corresponding laboratory investigations into the system of state guarantees (together with the institutions of the Ministry of Health of Russia), if there is clinical and economic feasibility; to include the issues of timely NMOSDs evaluation in educational programs initiated by the scientific medical community, in order to raise awareness of primary care neurologists in relation to the clinical and neuroimaging signs of probable NMOSDs; to assess the possibility of introducing routing schemes for patients with NMOSDs at the regional level; to work out a decision on the collection of NMOSDs epidemiological and clinical data in the Russian Federation.
