Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of lymphoplasmapheresis (LPE) in treatment of Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS). Methods The initial recovery time of muscle strength, muscle strength score difference, clinical therapeutic effect and the security after treatment with LPE were observed in 34 GBS patients. Meanwhile, 17 GBS patients applied with therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) named TPE group were served as control group. Results LPE group was treated with LPE 51 times in all, and the mean times was 1.5. TPE group received TPE 33 times in all, and the mean times were 1.9. In LPE group, the average initial recovery time [(12.74?7.18)d] was significantly shorter than that in TPE group [(24.35?14.22)d] (P0.05).Conclusions The therapeutic effect of LPE is distinguished for treatment with GBS and the side effect is rare. It is worth to apply in clinic.
