Abstract

Guillain Syndrome - Barré or acute poly-radicular-neuritis is a dysimmune demyelinating peripheral inflammatory neuropathy, characterized clinically by bilateral and symmetrical involvement of several spinal nerve roots and corresponding peripheral nerves and histologically through a process of demyelination and regression [1]. From the first days of illness, the physiotherapist's contribution to the medical team is of crucial importance. It is essential that the recovery program be implemented as early as possible, to avoid complications, reduce disabilities and functional deficits caused by the disease, through therapeutic means aimed at controlling, stabilizing, and possibly recovering the affected functions. The elaboration of measures for the prophylaxis of complications and the most effective methodologies of recovery, clinical and functional evaluation, and its use in establishing motor skills and therapeutic needs, assessing the clinical-etiological impact on the patient's functional status and identifying associated actions are considered.
