Neuromuscular Disorders10Guillain—Barré SyndromeGuiỉlain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune disorder of the peripheral nervous system. In GBS, the Ebook Fast facts about neurocritical care: Part 2 body’s immune system destroys the myelin sheath and the body's ability to carry nerve signals, resulting in progressive weakness and possible autonomic dysfunction. This can create hemodynamic instability, requiring critical care interventions.In this chapter, you will learn how to:■Describe sympto Ebook Fast facts about neurocritical care: Part 2ms of GBS.■Diagnose GBS.■Review treatment strategies for GBS.EPIDEMIOLOGY■Rare: 1 to 2 in 100,000 per year■Slightly more common in men than women (1.2Ebook Fast facts about neurocritical care: Part 2

In GBS, the Ebook Fast facts about neurocritical care: Part 2the immune system is activated by some type of precipitating event/factor that leads to autoantibody production. Often, it appears that viral or bacterial infection occurs prior to GBS. One theory regarding the disease process is that the infection itself changes nervous system cells in a way that e Ebook Fast facts about neurocritical care: Part 2ssentially makes them unrecognizable to the immune system, which subsequently treats them as foreign cells.
