Potential Neurological Outcomes in COVID-19 patients: a Review.
J Bahria Uni Med Dental Coll Jan ;10(4):310-5.

Coronavirus emerged from Wuhan China, which has been a global challenge for healthcare authorities and individuals. Patients are presenting to the clinicians with neurological symptoms caused by COVID-19 or with preexisting neurological conditions with fear of contracting the virus. We have conducted a literature review on neurological outcomes in COVID- 19 patients along with patients with underlying neurological conditions. We searched multiple databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, EBSCO, Semantic Scholar, and Wiley Online for information on neurological manifestations of patients suffering from coronavirus. Clinical data and co-morbidities of the patients were examined. Headache, dizziness, hyposmia, and stroke were among the symptoms reported. Emerging literature is suggesting that coronavirus patients along with respiratory symptoms are also experiencing neurological symptoms. Some medical emergencies such as stroke require immediate treatment to save the patients. Neurologists and clinicians need to recognize these symptoms in order to timely manage and treat the patients.
