The Guillain-Barré Syndrome Disability Scale (GBS-DS) is a clinical calculator used to assess the severity of disability in patients diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), a rare neurological disorder where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks part of its peripheral nerves. The GBS-DS is used to track the progression of the disease, evaluate the effectiveness of treatment, and predict patient outcomes. It is a six-point scale ranging from 0 (healthy) to 5 (requiring mechanical ventilation). The GBS-DS is applicable to all patients diagnosed with GBS, regardless of age or gender. There are no specific exclusion criteria for its use, but it may not be as effective in assessing disability in patients with other neurological conditions.
