RESUMEN
Studies of the neurological symptoms and signs associated with the acute and late phases of infectious diseases are important in pandemic conditions. The novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) pandemic has increased the number of patients with sleeplessness, this being an adverse prognostic factor for infections. This review addresses the factors and mechanisms of sleep impairments and their relationship with inflammation and immune system dysfunction in infectious diseases. In particular, impairments to the functioning of the melatoninergic system are discussed as the cause of sleeplessness during pandemics. The relevance of developing measures for rehabilitating patients, particularly use of Sonnovan to restore normal sleep, which plays a fundamental role in supporting people's mental and physical health, is emphasized.
RESUMEN
The study of neurological symptoms and signs connected with acute and long-term periods of infectious diseases is relevant during pandemics. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the number of patients suffering from insomnia. Sleep disturbance is an unfavorable prognostic factor for infections. Risk factors and mechanisms of sleep disturbance, their relationship with inflammation and dysfunction of the immune system in infectious diseases are presented. In particular, dysfunction of the melatonergic system as the cause of insomnia during pandemics is considered. The authors highlight the relevance of measures aimed at the rehabilitation of patients, in particular, the use of sonnovan to restore normal sleep, which is important for a person's mental and physical health.
