Complications" of the Landry-Guillain-Barré-Strohl syndrome"
Autor(es): King E G,Jacobs H
Resumo: Prognosis for life in the Landry-Guillain-Barré-Strohl syndrome is dependent upon the development of respiratory and non-respiratory complications" and their successful management. Review of the literature, a case history, and a study of 14 patients with this syndrome at the University Hospital, Edmonton, indicate that "complications" can be anticipated in virtually all areas of acute care management, including respiratory, gastrointestinal, urinary tract, central and autonomic nervous systems, metabolic, cardiovascular, and infectious disease. The proper management of patients with the Landry-Guillain-Barré-Strohl syndrome demands an awareness of the totality of care required and the presence of a hospital system that provides for vital system monitoring and support, and for ready interdisciplinary consultation."
