Abstract A patient with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) developed a respiratory crisis despite recurrent treatment with plasma exchange. Thus mechanical ventilatory support became necessary. As an alternative to conventional ventilatory techniques high-frequency pulsation (HFP), a modified high-frequency jet-ventilation technique was used. According to the observations HFP may be a valuable technique for the continuous adaptation to the patient's individual respiratory demands in GBS.
