Study Summary

Since the neurologic symptoms of some COVID patients ('brain fog') resemble those of patients with concussion, the aim of this study is to identify EEG and cognitive function changes in COVID patients. We will use the FDA cleared BrainScope medical device in conjunction with standard neurocognitive tests to identify correlations with electrical biomarkers and to potentially identify new, unique patterns of altered brain electrical activity associated with COVID-19 infection. A baseline assessment will be performed shortly after hospital presentation and then a second evaluation will be performed 45-60 days post hospital discharge to reassess clinical status, brain electrical biomarkers and neurocognitive performance. The goal will be to develop an objective measurement of brain function/dysfunction associated with COVID-19 infection which might be employed in future studies of treatments for COVID-19 brain fog and to aid in tracking recovery.

Primary Outcome

Compile types of EEG changes demonstrated by COVID patients with 'brain fog' symptoms compared to COVID patients without 'brain fog' symptoms.
