Sintomatología neuropsiquiátrica en el síndrome post-COVID. Propuesta de manejo y derivación desde atención primaria / Neuropsychiatric symptomatology in post-COVID syndrome. Intervention proposal and referral from primary care

La infección por SARS-CoV-2 es una enfermedad multiorgánica. Tiene un amplio espectro de manifestaciones clínicas, entre ellas neurológicas y psiquiátricas, que se expresan en todos los estadios evolutivos de la enfermedad. En muchas ocasiones presenta sintomatología a largo plazo que se ha denominado síndrome post-COVID. Entre la sintomatología neuropsiquiátrica derivada del mencionado síndrome, nos centramos en este manuscrito, por su prevalencia, en la cefalea, el deterioro cognitivo, las alteraciones del gusto y olfato, la depresión, los trastornos de ansiedad y el insomnio. En este documento se revisa esta sintomatología y se proponen algoritmos de manejo y criterios de derivación de atención primaria (AP) a otros especialistas (AU)
