NCT ID NCT04829526

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study reviews the medical records of 100 adults who were treated for Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) at a single hospital in Switzerland. The goal is to better understand how often GBS occurs, what symptoms and nerve problems people have, what treatments they receive, and how they recover. By looking at past cases, researchers hope to find patterns that could improve care for future patients.
