Hyderabad: 25-year-old woman diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome put on ventilator at KIMS

The woman initially received treatment at another hospital for a week, but as her condition worsened, she was shifted to KIMS Hospital for advanced medical care

Hyderabad: A 25-year-old woman from Siddipet, is currently admitted and is put on a ventilator support treatment at Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences (KIMS) Secunderabad after being diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS).

“Despite the high prevalence of this disease in Pune, Maharashtra, the patient has no history of travel to Pune, nor does anyone in her family have a history of this condition. The GBS occurs when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own nervous system after fever or loose motions,” Neurologist Dr. Praveen Kumar Yada said.
