Sleep Disorder During SARS-Cov-2 Infection: A Case Report

Öz

In the course of COVID-19 disease, a wide variety of organ and system involvements have been reported, as well as neurological involvement. Neurological picture caused by the disease include loss of taste and smell, sleep disorders, headache and meningitis. It has been suggested that sleep disorders may occur with the effect of stressor factors and immunological mechanisms that develop in various infection processes. In this article, we present a case who had no sleep disorder before, who described severe sleeplessness that started in the course of SARS-CoV-2 infection and returned to her old sleep pattern after COVID-19 treatment.

SARS-CoV-2 Enfeksiyonu Seyrinde Gelişen Uyku Bozukluğu: Olgu Sunumu

Öz

COVID-19 hastalık seyrinde çok çeşitli organ ve sistem tutulumları ile birlikte nörolojik tutulumlar da bildirilmiştir. Hastalığın neden olduğu nörolojik tablolarda tat ve koku kaybı, uyku bozukluğu, baş ağrısı ve menenjit yer almaktadır. Stresör faktörlerin ve çeşitli enfeksiyon süreçlerinde gelişen immünolojik mekanizmaların etkisi ile uyku bozukluklarının oluşabileceği öne sürülmüştür. Bu yazımızda daha önce hiçbir uyku sorunu olmayan, SARS-CoV-2 enfeksiyonu seyrinde başlamış şiddetli uykusuzluk tarifleyen ve COVID-19 tedavisi sonrası eski uyku paternine geri dönen bir olgu sunulmaktadır.
