While those signs and symptoms would likely be flagged by most clinicians, some of the emergent or urgent signs — such as upper motor neuron changes on physical exam — are more subtle, said Rydberg.
Consider polypharmacy reduction, looking especially closely at medications with a known impact on neurologic symptoms.Work with physical, occupational, and speech therapists to increase function and independence.The treatment recommendations are more in-depth for specific long-COVID conditions including headache, cranial neuropathies, sleep disturbances, and neuropathies.
"We know that these communities have been historically underserved, that there's already access issues, and that they're disproportionately impacted by the pandemic," said Verduzco-Gutierrez."This continues as patients develop PASC, or long COVID," she said, adding that these individuals are still less likely to receive rehabilitation services."This can lead to poorer outcomes and widened disparities.
The collaborative is also putting together a compilation of all the guidance —"a 'greatest hits' if you like," said Verduzco-Gutierrez.
