ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To estimate the frequency of long-COVID in patients with chronic cerebrovascular disease, to identify the risk factors for the development of this condition and to analyze effectiveness and tolerability of Vinpocetine and Aertal in treatment of this disease. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
The study included 97 patients (64.5±5.2 years), among which 42 were diagnosed with long-COVID. The effectiveness of treatment was analyzed with NRS-P, Post-COVID-19 Functional Status (PCFS), Global Rating of Change Scale (GROC).RESULTS:
Predictors of long-COVID was female gender (p=0.022), severe COVID-19 (p=0.035), comorbidities cardiovascular diseases (p=0.032), endocrinopathies (p=0.041), affective disorders (p=0.021). Significant changes in the functional status of patients were recorded after 20 days of treatment (PCFS), in pain after 10 days (NRS-P). The most pronounced clinical effect (PCFS) was obtained after 1 mth of therapy with vinpocetine and 20 days with aceclofenac (NRS-P). After 30 days 25/59.5% of patients noted a «pronounced¼ improvement in their own well-being (GROC) without the development of significant side effects.CONCLUSIONS:
43.3% of patients with chronic cerebrovascular disease and certain predictors develop long-COVID. Aceclofenac and vinpocetine are effective in relieving a number of symptoms of long-COVID, which requires further study.Keywords
