KOGNITIVNE IN DUŠEVNE MOTNJE PRI OSEBAH PO COVID-19. (Slovenian)

COGNITIVE AND MENTAL DISORDERS IN PEOPLE WITH COVID-19. (English)

There is an increased attention to cognitive and psychological complications associated with coronavirus disease. Recently, the term "brain fog" has become more common in the literature, referring to a set of psychological symptoms, behavioral changes, and cognitive impairments experienced by patients with central nervous system infection as a consequence of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Given the occurring symptoms, it is becoming increasingly clear that clinical psychologists have an important role in assessing, guiding, and treating COVID-19 survivors within interdisciplinary care. However, the clinical approach may deviate from the usual procedures used by clinical psychologists. The paper shares an insight of the literature on cognitive consequences and mental disorders that occur after COVID-19 and guidelines for clinical psychological treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Kognitivni in duševni zapleti, povezani s koronavirusno boleznijo, so vse bolj prepoznani. V zadnjem času se v literaturi vedno pogosteje pojavlja izraz "možganska megla", pri čemer gre za sklop psiholoških simptomov, vedenjskih sprememb in kognitivnih motenj, ki jih doživljajo bolniki po preboleli okužbi s prizadetostjo osrednjega živčnega sistema. Glede na opisano postaja vse bolj jasno, da imajo klinični psihologi pomembno vlogo pri ocenjevanju, vodenju in zdravljenju preživelih bolnikov s COVID-19 znotraj interdisciplinarne oskrbe. Vendar bo to verjetno zahtevalo prilagojen pristop, ki lahko odstopa od običajnih vlog in postopkov, ki so jih klinični psihologi vajeni. V prispevku predstavljamo pregled literature o kognitivnih posledicah in duševnih motnjah po COVID-19 ter smernice za kliničnopsihološko obravnavo. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
