Research evidence on the management of the cognitive impairment component of the post-COVID condition: a qualitative systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cognitive impairment (CI) is one of the most prevalent and burdensome consequences of COVID-19 infection, which can persist up to months or even years after remission of the infection. Current guidelines on post-COVID CI are based on available knowledge on treatments used for improving CI in other conditions. The current review aims to provide an updated overview of the existing evidence on the efficacy of treatments for post-COVID CI.

Methods

A systematic literature search was conducted for studies published up to December 2023 using three databases (PubMed-Scopus-ProQuest). Controlled and noncontrolled trials, cohort studies, case series, and reports testing interventions on subjects with CI following COVID-19 infection were included.
