OPTA 222 (GBS)

GBS Patho and Diagnosis

- Only affects peripheral nervous system
- Myelin sheath around axons gets destroyed

- Spinal tap confirms GBS if increased protein in the cerebrospinal fluid

Cause of GBS

- unknown
- Half of cases occur shortly after some type of infection so it is hypothesized to be an autoimmune reaction

Ie. maybe the infecting agent “looks like” nerve cells so the body ends up attacking itself when trying to defend against another illness (often respiratory or GI illness)

GBS Signs and Symtoms

- An infection of some sort often precipitates GBS
- Characterized by rapidly evolving relatively symmetrical ascending weakness or flaccid paralysis

- Tingling sensations in legs: Varying degrees

- Ataxia

- Difficulty with speaking

- Problems Chewing or swallowing

- Eye Mucle or vision problems

GBS Clinical Presentation

- Secondary complications lead to death in 5% of patients

- 50% of patients develop cranial nerve involvement

- Autonomic nervous system in 50% of patients

- Pain

- Sensory disturbances

Prognosis

- 50% of patients reach maximal point of paralysis in 1 week; 80% by 3 weeks
- 80% become ambulatory within 6 months of symptom onset

- *15% show persistent residual deficits

- Medical intervention depends on severity

- OVERALL: 70% reach full recovery

Treatment Medical
