Long-term outcomes of patients with a pre-existing neurological condition after SARS-CoV-2 infection

This study followed patients with pre-existing neurological conditions for up to 3.5 years, comparing those who had COVID-19 with those who didn’t. COVID-19 survivors, especially those hospitalized, had a higher risk of death, major cardiovascular events, fatigue, sleep issues, dyspnea, and altered mental status. Even non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients showed increased risk for several symptoms. Black and Hispanic patients had higher cardiovascular risk post-COVID. The findings suggest COVID-19 worsens long-term outcomes in neurologically vulnerable individuals, highlighting the need for targeted follow-up care.
