Popis: Abstract: Cognitive sequelae after recovery from an initial COVID-19 disease are present in a subset of affected individuals, coalescing around several important issues such as effects of age, COVID-19 disease severity, comorbidities, and other factors. Some neuropsychological symptoms appear more common among certain patient populations. Comorbidities may complicate neuropsychological assessment as well. Hence, we need a guideline-based evaluation to guide neuropsychological rehabilitation. Drawing from the recent revision of the German National Guideline for the Long- and Post-COVID Syndrome and current advances in international guidance on neuropsychological assessment, this article provides practical and scientifically informed recommendations for the neuropsychological assessment of individuals recovering from coronavirus-related diseases.
