Severe Patient

The critical importance of supportive care including physiotherapy to the acute severe Guillain-Barre patient is emphasised in numerous reports in the literature. However, there are no systematic studies of physiotherapy in Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS). This article examines the aetiology, pathology, clinical features, prognosis and treatment of GBS with reference to the physiotherapists’ management of the acute severe patient treated in an intensive care unit.

The management of critical illness is especially challenging in low-resource environments, and early recognition and supportive care are essential, regardless of the ability to employ advanced or invasive therapy. In this report, we discuss two patients with Guillain–Barré syndrome who were managed successfully in the intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Malawi. Both patients recovered and were discharged home. The management and outcomes of these patients provide case-based lessons for improving intensive care unit medicine in low-resource contexts.
