Особенности лечения сочетанных функциональных расстройств ЖКТ у пациентов, перенесших новую коронавирусную инфекцию, в амбулаторных условиях

Abstract

Patients with COVID-19 often suffer from a variety of gastrointestinal disorders. Often this is directly related to the effect of the virus on the epithelial cells of the gastrointestinal tract, as well as the prescription of drugs for the new coronavirus infection treatment. In some patients, gastrointestinal disturbances precede the onset of respiratory symptoms and remain for a long time after recovery, significantly reducing the quality of life. Approximately every second patient who had a COVID-19 infection suffers from stool disorders and dyspeptic symptoms. The most common variant of post-covid lesions of the gastrointestinal tract is functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome, which outpatient doctors have recently encountered more and more often. In most cases, the attending physician pays more attention to the pulmonary and cardiological manifestations of coronavirus infection, while the symptoms of gastrointestinal lesions are considered minor. The purpose of this article — is to consider possible methods for correcting the functional pathology of the gastrointestinal tract in patients after a COVID-19 infection.
