"Neuropsychiatric disorders and COVID-19": Comment

ABSTRACT

Comments on an article by Maxime Taquet et al. (see record 2021-39396-023). Authors read with interest the Article by Maxime Taquet et al. At face value, this specific finding reported by Taquet et al. could indicate an important neuromuscular complication in COVID-19. Authors recommend that COVID-19- related neuromuscular complications are investigated in more detail. Neuromuscular disorders after COVID-19 might have substantial implications for patient recovery and utilization of physical rehabilitation health-care resources. In authors' view, critical illness myopathy might be the most likely explanation for this previously unrecognized, important finding. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)
