Guillain-Barre sindrom (GBS) is a autoimune desease and a known couse of generalized progresive paralysis around the world. Also known as Landy's paralysis, its a imunological disorder of the nerve system with acute or subacut performanse that is usually karakterized with generalized progresive symetrik weeknes of the arms and legs, paresthesion of the limbs and relative or complete areflexia. GBS is usually enforced by the previous infection, from which mostly described previous infections are Campylobacter jejuni, Cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus and Mycoplasma pneumonia. The diagnose is made by analyzing cerebrospinal fluid from the spine (retrieved via punkcion), electromyography, electroneuromyography and blood scan. There is no known cure for the disorder, however a few treatments can greatly decrease the symptoms and reduce the length of the illness, for that reason in the process of curing the patient huge doses of intravenous immunoglobulins or plasmapheresis and corticosteroids are implemented. Both ways of treatment, plasmapheresis or intravenous immunoglobulin are equally effective, however the intravenous immunoglobulin is preferred since the process of implementation is easier. Only with the cooperation of the whole medical team are the tasks like diagnosis, treatment, therapy and pharmaceutical interventions implemented, because in that way the patient is being maximally assisted to regain previous level of independence. The methodology of this paper is the quantitative and non-experimental examination of the students' nursing study at the University of North about the Guillain-Barre syndrome, appearance of the symptom and the potential complications as well as the ways of treatment and patient care. The results confirmed that there was insufficient knowledge and information on the GBS problem in the student population and that they called for additional education and training.
