Introduction. For three years COVID-19 has been raging in Georgia as well as all over the world. Many clinics including ours have become a battle place against covid infection.
The aim of this work is to introduce interesting clinical cases which are related to covid infection associated Guillain-Barre syndrome and to find ways of prevention.
Materials and methods. We have studied patients with covid infection in our clinic from October 2020 to February 2021. In total 544 patients were admitted to the clinic, 477 were treated on a stationary basis. Among them 242 were men and 240 – women, the median age was 47 years. In the post-covid period 270 patients were re-admitted to clinic within two weeks to three months. Among them only 3 had Guillan-Barre disease (GBS). All the patients had a Brighton criteria level of diagnostic certainty 1 or 2.
Results and conclusion. As COVID 19 is an easily contagious disease which caused the worst pandemic in the 21st century, it is important to pay attention to patients whose first signs may be neurological symptoms. Diagnosis at the early stage of the disease will be important to manage correctly and prevent its spread. Disease prevention means applying to the hospital on time, because disease course directly depends on relevant examination and treatment.
