==Overview==
Guillain Barre syndrome may be caused by [[Campylobacter jejuni]], [[Cytomegalovirus]], [[Haemophilus influenzae|haemophilus influenza]], [[Epstein Barr virus|epstein-Barr virus]], [[Varicella zoster virus]] and [[Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)|HIV-1]].


==Overview==
==Causes==
'''Guillain-Barré syndrome''' ('''GBS''') is an acute, autoimmune, [[neuropathy|polyradiculoneuropathy]] affecting the [[peripheral nervous system]], usually triggered by an acute infectious process. It is included in the wider group of [[peripheral neuropathy|peripheral neuropathies]]. There are several types of GBS, but unless otherwise stated, GBS refers to the most common form, acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP). It is frequently severe and usually exhibits as an ascending paralysis noted by weakness in the legs that spreads to the upper limbs and the face along with complete loss of deep tendon reflexes. With prompt treatment of [[plasmapheresis]] followed by [[immunoglobulins]] and supportive care, the majority of patients will regain full functional capacity. However, death may occur if severe pulmonary complications and [[dysautonomia]] are present.
 
=== Life-threatening Causes ===
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent [[disability]] within 24 hours if left untreated. GBS has a different natural history in every patient based on age and the speed of [[Symptom|symptoms]] occurrence, so it can lead to death or patients may fully recover no matter what the [[etiology]] is.<ref name="pmid9818934">{{cite journal |vauthors=Hadden RD, Cornblath DR, Hughes RA, Zielasek J, Hartung HP, Toyka KV, Swan AV |title=Electrophysiological classification of Guillain-Barré syndrome: clinical associations and outcome.

Overview

Guillain Barre syndrome may be caused by Campylobacter jejuni, Cytomegalovirus, haemophilus influenza, epstein-Barr virus, Varicella zoster virus and HIV-1.

Causes

Life-threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. GBS has a different natural history in every patient based on age and the speed of symptoms occurrence, so it can lead to death or patients may fully recover no matter what the etiology is.[1][2]
