Abstract: Cognitive impairment is a prominent symptom of the post-COVID syndrome (PCS). However, correspondence between subjective cognitive complaints (SCC) and objective results inconsistent. Here, we investigated this discrepancy. This longitudinal study included N = 42 individuals who reported SCC as PCS after mild infection at inclusion. Data collection comprised questionnaires neuropsychological assessment baseline follow-up (FU). At FU – on average 15 months acute COVID-19 88 % patients persisting SCC. There was an approx. 40 discrepancy report test both visits. Patients with indicated elevated fatigue reduced quality life compared to without FU. A growing number anticipated request assessments even infections.

Abstract: This review assesses neurocognitive studies on long-/post-COVID-19 adult patients, highlighting the research gaps. We categorize populations by infection severity, demographics, inclusion of controls, and psychological/biological factors. Methodologically, we analyzed 73 (95,600 subjects) from December 2019 to October 2022 using PRISMA-ScR guidelines PICO framework. Our findings revealed that most lacked control groups (88 %) reported unclear overall cognitive outcomes (73 %). While frequently assessed executive functions (86 attention (85 %), there were few longitudinal studies. Varied reporting sample sizes further complicated analysis. The identified gaps encompass convenience sampling, limited studies, inadequate use test batteries, leading a discrepancy between expected outcomes. absence standardized comparisons inconsistent statistical methods exacerbated these

Abstract Some people infected with SARS-CoV-2 report persisting symptoms following acute infection. If these persist for over three months, they are classified as post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS). Although PCS is frequently reported, detailed longitudinal neuropsychological characterization remains scarce. We aimed to describe the trajectory of cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms. 42 individuals deficits after asymptomatic mild/moderate COVID-19 at study inclusion received assessment baseline (BL) follow-up (FU; six months BL). Assessments included comprehensive testing five neurocognitive domains, two screening tests, questionnaires on depression, anxiety, sleep, fatigue, health-related quality life. Results showed high rates subjective complaints BL FU (95.2% versus 88.1%) without significant change time. However, objectively measured disorder (NCD) decreased (61.9% 42.9%). All domains were affected, yet most found in learning memory, followed by executive functions, complex attention, language, perceptual motor functions. In NCD, first mentioned improved significantly time, while last remained unchanged. Cognitive tests did not prove valuable detecting impairment. Neuropsychiatric constant except life, which improved. This emphasizes importance research provides insights into long-term impairments PCS. While performance many

Abstract: This study introduces a 3-week group program designed for patients with neurocognitive post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS). The represents combination of evidence-based components neurorehabilitation and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Following detailed assessment, we develop personalized bio-psycho-social model that integrates perceived complaints identifies modifiable influencing factors. We employed physiotherapeutic, cognitive, communicative training methods to improve patients’ awareness energy limits implement compensatory strategies, including pacing mindfulness techniques. N = 33 completed the between June 2021 November 2022. A pre-post comparison questionnaire-based self-assessments revealed significant positive effects on mood, self-efficacy, participation but not fatigue symptoms. provides recommendations neuropsychological treatment PCS.

Abstract: Everyday life situations characterized by poor controllability because of restrictions and uncertainty about action outcomes may attenuate motivational states executive control. This article explores the interaction a prior experience with COVID-19 susceptibility to respond challenging situation low action-outcome predictability. We assessed cognitive effort readiness as willingness invest in cognitively demanding tasks. Individuals history exhibited more pronounced reduction after experiencing experimentally induced unpredictability compared controls. These results suggest generalization perceived loss control among individuals history. findings contribute conceptualizing assessing long-term consequences pandemic-induced emotional problems.

Abstract: The current literature has insufficiently examined the potential benefits of implementing early neuropsychological interventions for critically ill patients who have experienced COVID-19. To address this research gap, we conducted a descriptive analysis clinical and data from N = 29 with COVID-19 admitted to an neurological rehabilitation facility. Most had been diagnosed critical illness polyneuropathy (CIP), one-third exhibited additional brain damage. Upon admission, all severe cognitive impairments, demonstrating significant improvement following therapy. Nonetheless, neurocognitive outcomes at discharge displayed high psychoemotional status variability. This paper presents treatment concept employed discusses challenges encountered while treating impairments.

Zusammenfassung: Die neuropsychologische Begutachtung von Personen nach Infektionen mit der Coronavirus-Krankheit 2019 (COVID-19) und potenziellen Symptomen des Post-COVID-Syndroms (PCS) im sozialrechtlichen Kontext erfordert nicht nur die Einhaltung spezifischer rechtlicher Vorgaben, sondern auch Berücksichtigung allgemeiner Leitlinien Fachgesellschaften. PCS-Begutachtung stellt sowohl für Betroffene als Gutachter Gutachterinnen eine Herausforderung dar, wenn Funktionsdefizite oder Kausalzusammenhänge eindeutig sind. Dieser Artikel vermittelt einen Überblick über relevante Forschungsergebnisse zur Pathogenese reflektiert aktuelle Rahmenbedingungen Beurteilungsregularien. sollte sich in Deutschland an den Gesellschaft Neuropsychologie (GNP) orientieren, sind publizierten neurologischen Kriterien zu integrieren. Mit raschem Fortschreiten PCS-Forschung hohen interdisziplinären Anforderungen ist ein fachlicher Austausch wesentlich, um Standards neuropsychologischen PCS weiterzuentwickeln.
