Cause and Treatment for Long-Term Cognitive Decline in Patients Recovered from Acute SARS-Cov2 Infection

Cytokine storm can cause small strokes, and if recovered hospital patients continue to experience poor memory, attention, or slow processing speed 6-8 months after discharge, they should see a neurologist. Those with low scores in certain cognitive domains should consider receiving brain rehabilitation in order to restore their cognitive capacity which would reduce their risk for developing a worse case of age-related cognitive decline later in life.
