Abstract

The present case report utilises the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model to assess the health condition and its impact on various health domains of a 46-year-old male who experienced recurrent Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) for the second time within three years. The patient presented with sudden difficulty swallowing solid food and bilateral lower limb weakness, struggling to rise from a sitting position. The report explores the patient’s ICF profile, highlighting the effect of GBS on his daily life and recovery process. The patient’s remarkable recovery can be attributed to several factors, despite the challenges faced. These factors include good socio-economic status, motivation, family support and consistent physiotherapy. Together, these elements played pivotal roles in facilitating the recovery process.
