Despite common symptoms that former hospitalized and nonhospitalized long COVID patients share, the researchers found notable differences between the groups.
A study conducted by researchers at the Northwestern Medicine Neuro COVID-19 Clinic shows long-haul COVID-19 patients experience symptoms for an average of 15 months.
A new Northwestern Medicine study of 52 long haulers, who were not hospitalized and only experienced mild symptoms like cough and sore throat, found that most continued to experience neurologic symptoms, fatigue and compromised quality of life up to 18 months after initial infection.
Most non-hospitalized COVID-19 "long-haulers" at the Northwestern Medicine Neuro COVID-19 Clinic continued to experience symptoms such as brain fog, numbness and tingling, headache, dizziness, blurred vision, tinnitus and fatigue an average of 15 months after disease onset, according to a new study published in Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology.
