GB Syndrome (Guillain-Barre syndrome)

Guillain-Barré syndrome is an acute illness that is caused by inflammation of peripheral nerves leading to loss of sensation, muscle weakness, and, in more serious cases, complete paralysis and breathing difficulty. In almost 80% of children, these symptoms follow a recent illness (usually viral). This infection is thought to trigger a faulty response in the immune system.

Causes

In Guillain-Barré syndrome, the body's immune system attacks part of the peripheral nervous system. Usually, Guillain-Barré occurs a few days or weeks after the patient has had symptoms of a respiratory or gastrointestinal viral infection. The body's immune system begins to attack the body itself, causing what is known as an autoimmune disease.

Symptoms

The disease varies in speed of onset with children reaching their maximal disability over a matter of days or, much more gradually over a period of up to four weeks. Initial symptoms consist of tingling, numbness, unsteadiness, and progressive weakness usually affecting the feet and then the hands and gradually progressing up the limbs. At the height of their illness, about a quarter of children remain able to walk but the other three quarters lose their mobility and about 16% need to be artificially ventilated in an intensive care unit. The condition can occur at any age but there appear to be peak ages of onset in childhood at four years and twelve years.

Manage

Recovery usually begins in two to three weeks and may be accompanied by pain and tingling in the limbs. Most children are able to walk unaided by six weeks and most are free from symptoms by about three months. Minorities of patients have some residual problems but these children are usually still able to walk unaided. In general, children make a much better recovery than adults.
