The Devastating Neurological Effects of Long-Term COVID-19
TL;DR
Researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center are studying the long-term neurological impacts of COVID-19, including memory loss and acquired brain injury (ABI). COVID survivors who suffered from a lack of oxygen or used a ventilator can exhibit ABI symptoms. Cognitive rehabilitation, which involves learning strategies and techniques to work around deficits, can help those struggling with neurological issues. The hope is that more research will lead to more answers and better treatment options for long COVID patients.
