Effect of oxygen therapy duration on cognitive impairment 12 months after hospitalization for SARS-COV-2 infection.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To identify predictors of persistent cognitive impairment at 12 months after hospitalization due to COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.

Design

Retrospective, single-centre study.

Subjects

All consecutive patients assessed in physical and rehabilitation medicine consultations at 3 months with a neuropsychiatric testing (NPT) at 6 months.

Methods

A Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was performed at 3 months and NPT at 6 and 12 months, exploring global cognitive efficiency, attention and processing speed, short-term memory and executive function. Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to identify predictors of persistent cognitive impairment.

Results

Among 56 patients, 64.3% and 53.6% had 1 or more impaired cogn
