Abstract

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute demyelinating poliradioculopathy and autoimmune condition, with a fast rapid natural course, and with high disability and usually episodic immune treatment. Clinical features include areflexia, limb weakness and uncommonly, sensory loss proceeding to neuromuscular paralysis involving bulbar, facial and respiratory function with maximum severity of symptoms atin 2-4 weeks. The eEtiology of GBS is not incompletely understood, however, prognosis is usually good with early detection and prompt treatment. In thise paper, we present a unique case of comprehensive rehabilitation treatment for a pregnant woman with GBS atin the 8th week of pregnancy. On the basis of this case report, we discuss possible and safe rehabilitation treatment for women in the first trimester of pregnancy, with significantly weakened muscle strength, after stabilizsation of vital signs and immunotherapy. The paper describes comprehensive care provided to the pregnant woman with teraplegia, hyperstesia and dysphagia after stabiliszation of vital signs, which was conducted until delivery atin the 39th week of pregnancy.
