Abstract
In the face of increasing reports of CNS involvement in COVID-19 cases, it is likely that the current epidemic may be accompanied by a significant increase in the prevalence of neurological sequelae, cognitive dysfunction, and long-term behavioural alterations affecting quality of life and autonomy in daily life. This is consequential to the neuroinvasion and multi-organ dysfunction, but also to the psychological distress and socioeconomic changes that occur. Long COVID and neurocovid are now an established concept worldwide. However, the clinical features of these two entities are still debated. The chapter provides information about the nosographic framing, associated pathophysiological mechanisms, alterations in the central and peripheral nervous systems, and the associated neurocognitive profile, indications about predictor and clinical evaluation according to a patient-centred multidimensional immuno-behavioural approach.
