One of the more puzzling aspects of the novel coronavirus is just how many organ systems are impacted through the course of the disease. We've heard about the heart, lungs and respiratory symptoms, but a growing mystery is its impact on the nervous system.
One of the more puzzling aspects of the novel coronavirus is just how many organ systems are impacted through the course of the disease. We've heard about the heart, lungs and respiratory symptoms, but a growing mystery is its impact on the nervous system.
A report in April suggested more than a third of 214 Covid-19 patients studied experienced neurological complications ranging from loss of smell to stroke. The virus can lead to neurological complications like delirium, brain inflammation, stroke and nerve damage. In a University College London study published earlier this month, 10 out of 43 patients had"temporary brain dysfunction" and delirium, while 12 had brain inflammation, eight had strokes and eight had nerve damage.
That's why regular exercise, healthy diet, proper sleep and reducing stress are still important during this pandemic. By maintaining an active, healthy lifestyle, patients who end up getting infected can"improve their odds of a faster and more favorable recovery," said Fotuhi. For doctors, patients with Covid may not be sick with the typical viral symptoms you'd expect like cough or fever. Some patients who show up in the emergency room have only shown signs of stroke.
