Abstract
COVID-19 is a respiratory disease that spreads rapidly starting at the end of 2019. The resulting manifestations vary from respiratory symptoms to neurological symptoms. The variety of neurological symptoms found when coming to the Emergency Department triggered a study to examine the neurological features of COVID-19 patients. A retrospective descriptive examination of 2,659 patients hospitalized to the emergency department between March 1, 2020, and March 31, 2022, constitutes the basis of our study. There were patients of every age and gender represented. The study considered all clinical factors, such as comorbidities, clinical presentation, and neurologic manifestations such as cephalgia, vertigo, stroke, hypoxic encephalopathy, a disorder of consciousness, seizure, myalgia, ageusia/dysgeusia, and anosmia. The study results showed 2,659 confirmed COVID-19 patients at the Husada Utama Hospital and 1,484 COVID-19 patients with neurological manifestations, or 55.8%, were found. The most common neurological manifestations are cephalgia, and the least are seizures.
