Patients recovering from acute COVID-19 infection often suffer from a multitude of debilitating chronic physical symptoms that can last up to 6 months or more. The incidence of fatigue, cognitive impairment and respiratory symptoms are reported to be very high in the post-COVID period. The underlying pathophysiology of cognitive impairment is unclear in these patients. Notably, sleep disturbances are common during this post-COVID period, and sleep apnea has been associated with an increased risk for severe COVID infection. Thus, it is conceivable that sleep fragmentation, per se, may confer an increased risk for chronic cognitive deficits in Veterans post-COVID. Our proposed pilot project will determine if there is a link between post-COVID sleep disturbances, sleep apnea and cognitive function. Knowledge gained from our examinations may guide development of novel management pathways, i.e., mitigation of sleep disturbances may present a therapeutic strategy for alleviating chronic post-COVID cognitive impairment. Aim1 will investigate the effect of sleep duration and sleep quality on neurocognitive function in post-COVID Veterans. Aim 2 will study whether the severity of OSA determines neurocognitive function Veterans who are post-COVID. This is an observational study where we will gather retrospective as well as prospective data on the long-term effects of COVID on neurocognitive function and sleep. Our long-term goal is to enhance rehabilitation and recovery of function of Veterans suffering from post-COVID consequences that may arise due to sleep disturbances, with the ultimate objective of improving the overall health and quality of life of Veterans recovering from COVID-19 infection.

从急性 COVID-19 感染中恢复的患者通常会遭受多种慢性身体疾病的困扰 症状可持续长达 6 个月或更长时间。疲劳、认知障碍和呼吸障碍的发生率 据报道，新冠肺炎后时期的症状非常严重。认知的潜在病理生理学 这些患者的损伤尚不清楚。值得注意的是，睡眠障碍在新冠疫情之后很常见 睡眠呼吸暂停与严重新冠病毒感染的风险增加有关。因此，它是 可以想象，睡眠碎片化本身可能会增加慢性认知缺陷的风险 新冠疫情后的退伍军人。我们提议的试点项目将确定新冠疫情后睡眠之间是否存在联系 干扰、睡眠呼吸暂停和认知功能。从我们的考试中获得的知识可以指导 开发新的管理途径，即减轻睡眠障碍可能是一种治疗方法 缓解新冠肺炎后慢性认知障碍的策略。 Aim1 将研究新冠疫情后睡眠时间和睡眠质量对神经认知功能的影响 退伍军人。目标 2 将研究 OSA 的严重程度是否决定神经认知功能 新冠疫情后。这是一项观察性研究，我们将收集回顾性和前瞻性数据 新冠病毒对神经认知功能和睡眠的长期影响。我们的长期目标是增强 遭受新冠疫情后可能出现的后果的退伍军人的康复和功能恢复 由于睡眠障碍，最终目标是改善整体健康和生活质量 从 COVID-19 感染中康复的退伍军人。
