Resumen
El virus SARS-Cov-2 sigue afectando actualmente a la población, con síntomas persistentes, afectando entre muchos órganos y sistemas también la cognición y produciendo déficits en la memoria y deterioro de la capacidad de concentración incluso durante varios meses después de que los pacientes se han recuperado del COVID-19.
Para determinar la frecuencia y tipos de déficits cognitivos, se llevó a cabo un estudio de tipo observacional, prospectivo, transversal, y descriptivo desarrollado en una muestra aleatoria de 267 pacientes dados de alta hospitalaria por COVID-19 en el Hospital Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo durante los años 2021-2022, a quienes se les aplicó una encuesta mediante una entrevista estructurada vía telefónica 129 y domiciliaria 138 a cada paciente previo consentimiento informado. Para evaluar la disfunción cognitiva se usará la Evaluación Cognitiva de Montreal (Montreal cognitive assessment /MoCA BLIND) validado. Los datos serán procesados de manera descriptiva y las variables cualitativas con frecuencias absolutas y relativas mientras las variables cuantitativas con medidas de tendencia central. En este estudio se encontró que cerca del 75% presenta déficit cognitivo, siendo las capacidades más afectadas la capacidad de recuerdo diferido y la capacidad de orientación que tienden a tener valores por debajo de la mediana del puntaje de la dimensión.
The SARS-Cov-2 virus continues to affect the population today, with persistent symptoms, affecting many organs and systems, including cognition, and causing memory deficits and impaired concentration even for several months after patients have recovered from COVID-19. To determine the frequency and types of cognitive deficits, an observational, prospective, cross-sectional, and descriptive study was carried out on a random sample of 267 patients discharged from hospital for COVID-19 at the Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo Hospital during the years 2021-2022, to whom a survey was applied through a structured interview by telephone 129 and at home 138 to each patient with prior informed consent. To assess cognitive dysfunction, the validated Montreal Cognitive Assessment (Montreal cognitive assessment / MoCA BLIND) will be used. The data will be processed descriptively and the qualitative variables with absolute and relative frequencies while the quantitative variables with measures of central tendency. In this study, it was found that about 75% have cognitive deficits, with the most affected abilities being the ability to recall and the ability to orient, which tend to have values below the median of the dimension score.
