“…( 1 ) They noted that although neurological impairment caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection usually occurs in a variable manner, almost all patients with respiratory failure and ARDS develop impairment. Although information is limited, as Finsterer and Scorza noted, ( 2 ) we support the need for a prospective study on patients with neurological dysfunction after severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. In addition, we agree with the points raised by Magoon and Suresh.…”

“…( 1 ) Os autores observaram que, embora o comprometimento neurológico causado pela infecção pelo coronavírus da síndrome respiratória aguda grave 2 (SARS-CoV-2) geralmente se apresente de forma variável, quase todos os pacientes com insuficiência respiratória e SDRA desenvolvem algum grau de comprometimento. Embora as informações sejam limitadas, como ressaltam Finsterer e Scorza, ( 2 ) acreditamos que há necessidade de um estudo prospectivo de pacientes que desenvolveram disfunção neurológica após infecção grave pelo SARS-CoV-2. Além disso, concordamos com os pontos levantados por Magoon e Suresh.…”
