dc.description.abstractObjectives: To investigate the effects of sensory deficits on balance, functional status and trunk control in patients diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS). Methods: Twenty patients who were diagnosed with GBS and who were in the neurology department of Mustafa Kemal University in 2017, participated in this descriptive study. There were 11 males and 9 females, and the average age was 41.55 +/- 18.49 years. The trunk control of the GBS patients was assessed using the trunk impairment scale (TIS), reaching function was assessed using the functional reaching test (FRT) in the sitting position and body balance assessed using die Berg balance scale (BBS). Light touch was assessed using Semmes-Weinstein monofilament test, proprioception was assessed using the distal proprioception test and disability status was assessed using the Guillain-Barre syndrome disability scale (GBSDS). Results: We found a moderate, positive and significant correlation between proprioception scores and the BBS and between proprioception scores and the TIS. The correlation between proprioception and FRT in the sitting position and between proprioception and the GBSDS was not significant. We found a moderate and negative correlation between light touch and the FRT in the sitting position, TIS, BBS, but a moderate and positive correlation between light touch and the GBSDS. Conclusion: Neurologists and physiotherapists should both take sensory and motor function into consideration in the assessment and rehabilitation program of patients diagnosed with GBS.en_US
