AIDP (Guillain-Barre Syndrome)

Guillain–Barré syndrome, is an acute polyneuropathy, a disorder affecting the peripheral nervous system. Ascending paralysis, beginning in the feet and hands and migrating towards the trunk, is the most typical symptom, and some subtypes can cause dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. It can cause life-threatening complications, in particular if the respiratory muscles are affected or if there is autonomic nervous system involvement. The disease is usually triggered by an infection.
