Summary

This study aims to determine the effects of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Training on Sensory versus Motor Function in patients presenting with Guillain Barre Syndrome.

Conditions

  • Guillain-Barre Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Training

Proprioceptive exercises will be divided into three components. The first component will be comprised of standing on Foam with eyes open and eyes closed and passing any object from one subject to the other for 10 minutes. The second component consists of activity that will be performed in groups of two. Throwing and catching a ball will be performed while standing on foam for additional10 minutes. The third component, throwing and catching a ball, will be performed on trampoline to further challenge the balance system. After each set of 10-minute exercise, the subjects will be given two-minute resting periods. In the end, 10 minutes will be given for cooling down in which deep breathing exercises and static back extensor stretching exercises will be performed to avoid fatigue and to bring the heart rate back to the normal resting level.

OTHER

Conventional Physical Therapy

Conventional treatment protocolconsists of a structured exercise protocol Each training session consisted of three parts, the first part included the main movements (warming up 10 minutes plus 5 minutes stretching exercises), the second part consisted of specific movements (exercises with theraband and physioball, 20 minutes), and the third part composed of cool down exercises (10 minutes).(22)Experimental treatment protocolwill be proprioceptive training program. PTP will be based on earlier studies, and will be carried out for eight weeks, with two 60-minute sessions per week. It will start with 10 minutes of Warm-up activities when the subjects will be advised to do light manual stretches and to step up and down on foam to get their body warmed up to have improve muscular flexibility. This will be followed by 30 minutes of proprioceptive exercises targeting lower extremities.
