Abstract: Diaphragmatic dysfunction can arise from various factors, and Guillain–Barre syndrome, characterized by acute inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy, is one such cause that may result in respiratory failure due to diaphragmatic paralysis. Prompt recognition and timely intervention, including airway protection and addressing the underlying pathology, are crucial for achieving optimal patient outcomes. Point-of-care ultrasound, specifically utilizing the M-mode function, can be employed for individuals displaying symptoms of diaphragmatic paralysis. This diagnostic approach is uncomplicated an effective tool for serial follow-up. In this context, we present a case series involving three patients with diaphragmatic paralysis in a limited-resource setting. Keywords: diaphragmatic paralysis, point-of-care Ultrasound, resource-limited setting
