The Pediatric department AIIMS, Bhopal is pleased to announce the successful treatment and discharge of a 5 year old female child diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) after a long stay of 107 days in the icu and ward of Department of Pediatrics!
The patient was admitted to our facility with complaints of progressive weakness and inability to move all 4 limbs and progressive difficulty in breathing. A dedicated team of consultants from departments of Pediatrics, resident doctors and nurses provided round-the-clock care and rehabilitation, ensuring the patient received the best possible treatment. The patient has shown remarkable progress and is returning home after overcoming this challenging condition and prolonged ventilation for 2 months. She is now tracheostomised and is able to maintain adequate oxygenation on room air and is also able to move her limbs. She will continue with physiotherapy and outpatient follow-up to ensure complete recovery.
