Abstract

Long-term "mechanical ventilation", which is frequently required for patients suffering from serious COVID-19, is predicted to cause major complications. Many of the survivors had ICUAW (intensive care unit-acquired weakness). Howeverin the course of our post-COVID-19 follow-up, we discovered that In our clinic, we discovered that, in addition to the expected global weakness associated with muscle mass loss, a a sizable number of patients have a a sizable number of patients who have a a sizable number of patients  who have a a sizable number of patients  who have a sizable Multiple axonal mononeuropathies have caused debilitating localized neurological impairments in some of these patients. Among the many We have encountered 50 individuals with serious COVID-19who have been released from our hospital's ICU.

There were 16 percent of people with a "mononeuritis multiplex". In several instances, the "multi-focal character" of the flaw in these systems Patients were initially misdiagnosed because their symptoms were mistakenly attributed to "critical disease neuromyopathy." While "mononeuropathy" is well-known as a rare complication of critical care, our experience implies that it is extra frequent than that. In patients recovering from serious COVID-19, impairments are surprisingly common and often disabling
