Masterclass by IFCN: The Electrodiagnosis of Guillain–Barré Syndrome

Join us for the next Masterclass by IFCN presentation on Saturday, May 22, 2021 at 8:00 am EDT (2:00 pm CET).

Professor Nortina Shahrizaila will present The Electrodiagnosis of Guillain–Barré Syndrome.

The electrodiagnosis of Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) can be classified into demyelinating and axonal subtypes. In recent years, it has been demonstrated that there may be flaws in the existing criteria especially when applied at the early stages of disease. In this talk, the evolution of the electrodiagnostic criteria of GBS is discussed along with their drawbacks in recognising the spectrum of axonal subtypes of GBS.
